That looks pretty cool. I like the texture. Is it comfortable? I was wondering if you lined the back with something soft? Probably not necessary, but it ran through my mind. My two cents: maybe an edge embellishment, even if it’s just the edge of the material maybe in a contrast/or some type of thin binding stitched, or hole punch across top or bottom,etc., some type of jewelry cording stretched across in a harlequin/diamond pattern?? Lots of cool things you could do with these in different variations. Subliminal marketing, paint trouts subtly underneath… =) I’m sure you could make these pair up nicely with your rings by embellishing them, but you’ve probably already thought of ways to do that. I could go on, but I’ve probably said enough. feel free to email me. I can ramble with the best of them. =)

I can feel the burst of inspiration that’s surging through you, so awesome! I say do it if it feels spontaneously good. Many possibilities here. You can use your finished paintings; you can also paint specific paintings with your jewelry in mind, altering the material you use as the backdrop. Canvas, vinyl, suede, any material that has the structure you want. It’s exciting that you’ve had the idea brewing and now it’s coming to life. Yay! Have fun!
