Inspired By MC Escher
About this design:
I had to do a bracelet for a challenge I signed up for and it was "Inspired by Art". I am NOT inspired by art, but have always loved Escher's pictures, so here is my bracelet. The recipient of the piece loves it.
Components:
Sterling Silver Tube clasp, delica beadsRead the comments (or add your own)

Lynn in Oz says:Thanks all
I have been too tired lately to do much but sit back and relax. I started a casual position in early January- twelve weeks later I was offered the position of assistant manager. So life has been chaotic.
I work Sunday – Thursday 8:30am to 6pm (except Sunday which finishes at 4pm). So it has been hard to get used too LOL
Now that I am getting into a routine, I might get some more time to be here

Faithful Chick aka Faith says:Wow! Magnificent work such patience and nerves you must have of steel. Congrats on a beautiful piece. I’m afraid I would never have been able to complete this work. I commend you for your good eye sight (or sorry if now you are needing your eyes examined) This is wonderful. Glad to see you back. Congrats on the new job too.
