Orna Lalo

Israeli artist Orna lalo is such an inspiration for color and design.

Ms Lalo, a graduate of Shenkar College for Fashion and Textile, began her professional career in 1990 designing distinctive fashion accessories. Her Unique look and imaginative eye had brought her much attention by leading fashion designers for custom work on the runway.

introducing- The Fantasy Line

Sometimes you don’t really know where your inspiration comes from. I browse the internet and art books a lot, looking at some pretty things but when I close the “inspiration source” and get back to my “normal” life I can never know where it will hit me…
This is what happened to me with this new line. I am fascinated by the scrapbooking designs that I see everywhere. Last week I was playing with the new Studio clay colors, making some Hamsas and there it was… the doodles from scrapbooking designs hit me and this is the result… a new Fantasy line which is colorful and has a lot more potential coming ahead J
Hope you like it as much as I like making it

A good friend of mine brought to my attention that Toby did it (again ). She featured my new Sisyphean line on her blog yesterday.
Every time that my work is mentioned somewhere on the biosphere I get tickled inside, flattered, of course by the fact that my work in appreciated by others.
Thanks Toby for the tickle

psycodalic Brooch

This one was really fun to make. I played with the tiny strips with no prior plans and it was really enjoyable.

the cloudiness that you see on top in a coat of resin added to protect the seed beads from falling as time goes by and to add a luxurious look - the resin make the colors pop and get more vibrant
