So Much Fun!! I think I've fainted.
 
Jianre-M and I met some awesome people and artists. (I even kinda stalked another artists booth, :happybounce: lol when I could with my own work in front of me...) So many people and cosplayers to see and meet!

To the down and dirty part of selling at conventions; we actually lost just a little bit of money on the whole operation (and I mean a very little money) with the expenses etc. factored in, but it was a total social success. We are currently planning next years AX so it should go better and we are also waiting on AX to open up the artist alley badges and tables for sale so we can get two tables (and one more artist B-) (Cool) ) registered.
Once we get AX tables and badges then we will know how much we have left over to go to other conventions this year or next year. currently we are looking at two for this year... umm PMX in November and I can't remember the other right now srry! I'll ask Jianre-M when I get the chance.

I finally started to upload some of my new work here from Anime Expo 2013 and you might notice that a lot of the pendants are made with pieces of oyster shells. I found a supplier and I love the look of them. I'm debating making them part of my normal inventory or just doing them special until this supply I purchased has run out...Have any thoughts on this?
The only difficulty I am encountering with these as the focal is that I can't reproduce the pearl-essence of the shell in the photographs. Most of my wire work is done to either enhance the colors in the focal piece or to accent it. So some of the pieces I took pictures of at AX13 do not show to their best as I can't get half the colors I was working with to show. Grump Does anyone know anything I could do to fix this? I've tried many different angles and different lighting brightness' but it doesn't seem to help much. I'll get the pearl sheen but not the colors.
Other than that I am having a blast with the different medium from the marble. Though I did a good number of those at con as well.

Thanks for listening!

Love and Hug to all of you,

Jayetta
