My Heart's A Volcano

“My Heart’s a Volcano” was inspired by Kahlil Gibran’s saying: “If your heart is a volcano, how shall you expect flowers to bloom?”

I think that’s a sentiment designed to inspire a peaceful heart. However, it isn’t easy to cure a volcano heart!

The original artwork is a 9” x 20” mixed media mosaic.
My work is hand-beaded by gluing each bead, jewel and embellishment one by one onto foam-core using tweezers and toothpicks. I love this kind of meditative labor. I use vintage Swarovski buttons and crystals, beads, a rich gold Murano glass heart, jeweled flowers, silver charms, loads of embellishments and hundreds of Czech bugle beads.

My Heart's A Volcano belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Prose, Philosophical., Altered Art, Heart Art, Inspired Art, Mixed Media and Vibrant and Vivid Color
