Love Drawings – Artwork Jewellery Discussion board

Is it actually so apparent what love is?

Love is related to an entire vary of feelings, a few of them full opposites: from serenity to ardour, from concord to fiery arguments.

We consistently see jewellery creations however not often the drawings of the makers. But jewelers are greater than fabricators of baubles. They’re artists as effectively, within the bigger sense. I subsequently invited jewelers from completely different nations to make a fast sketch of any picture, object, or concept that involves thoughts once they hear the phrase “love.”

Listed below are 14 interpretations of this profound idea on your appreciation. Let’s have a good time all types of affection and expression! ♥️

Vicki Mason, image courtesy of the artist. Mason says, "I did it on the back of an old box. Paying attention to rubbish and our endless consumer waste (what we use to package things in, where it goes, if it is sustainable, etc.) is a form of love for the planet. I love J. D. McClatchy's quote, ‘Love is the quality of attention we pay to things.’ For me it applies to everything in this world: love between humans, for nature, etc. And the flowers are Australian. Eucalyptus flowers are a much-loved flower of mine. And there are two of them just touching like two hands, connecting, so important in ideas of love." — ▲ Vicki Mason, picture courtesy of the artist.

I like J. D. McClatchy’s quote, ‘Love is the standard of consideration we pay to issues.’ For me it applies to all the things on this world: love between people, for nature, and so forth. And the flowers are Australian. Eucalyptus flowers are a much-loved flower of mine. And there are two of them simply touching like two fingers, connecting, so necessary in concepts of affection.”
