 Studio 604- Tish Collins
  
 | 
Colorado jeweler Tish Collins enjoys reclaiming old steel, then combining it with brass, silver, and other recycled materials to create beautifully earthy jewelry.

 "I love steel. I find beauty in the old and  			discarded; I have always been intrigued by the untold story trapped  			within the rust. It brings forth something buried deep within, a  			primal connection to the past.    |  | Copper & Steel Pendant |    In our busy throw away world,  			we overlook simple beauty and forget to honor the mundane.    |  | Steel Pendant with Painting |  
 My jewelry was created for just that purpose. I  			use etched, reclaimed metals in conjunction with new, mix symbolism  			from many cultures and combine comforting geometric shapes in  			unexpected ways.  I love to make complicated pieces for the  			simplest of reasons because I enjoy what I do. I see the world from  			a different perspective and create art for others with like  			views."

  |  | Max & Abbie |   
Our good friends Bill and Lee Anne recently found Max (on the left) at the Wee Beastie Scottie Rescue in Newport News, VA.  Max will be four years old in November.   Bill and Lee Anne brought him in to meet us last week.  It was Max's first visit to the beach.  Abbie was happy to show him the ropes, and I think he is pretty happy with his new life.
