I created these earrings for a friend. They’re a result of several trips to the bead/art store, numerous design variations, wire-work with the pliers and presto!

Scarabs

Posted by Sherrie Thai of Shaire Productions.

This piece was inspired by the King Tut Art Exhibition at the De Young Museum in San Francisco. I’ve always been fascinated by the incorporation of the dung beetle into the Egyptian mythology as a Scarab, a creature associated with the god Khepri, who pushed the sun through the Egyptian underworld. In my version, I replaced suns with eyeballs, as eyes are the windows to the soul–our own suns. The beetles are created in a bio-mechanical style and the minimal colors elude to the Ancient Egyptian influence.

This photo was taken at the Pistahan Filipino Festival at Yerba Buena Garden, San Francisco. I love the spontaneity and pureness in this moment.
