Sculpture with an Edge... MG Perkins has a distinct flair with bronze. The inspiration for her gorgeous sculptures comes from architecture, good design and nature, which supply the patterns and shapes for her original creations.

Her "Reflections" bronze mirrors are truly original works of art, as well as her new line of "Elements" wall sculptures.

Her work has been featured in several galleries and SKIRT magazine. You can see of Marygrace's designs at her Etsy shop and at her website, Sculpture with an Edge.

Vicki Jensen, an artist from Fall River, Massachusetts, focuses her talents on the intricacies of beadweaving. She painstakingly designs and constructs each piece individually, using a variety of off-loom stitching techniques. Each stitch is done by hand, one at a time, bead by bead.

Her favorite beads to work with are seed beads and other shapes of glass beads, with sterling and gold-filled findings. Her Green Freeform Netted Cuff is an absolute beauty with its asymmetrical design and subtle variations and shades of green, adorned with sparkling Swarovski crystals.

Another fascinating and original design is her Russian Leaf Lariat with a 48" spiral rope necklace that doubles when being worn. Visit Vicki's Etsy shop or see more of her studio work at her blog, Vicki's Studio.
