Unique artist promo!

While in Michigan, we were lucky enough to visit a craft fair in town featuring local artists selling their wares.  There were so many different booths, filled with the friendliest people...we had a great time visiting each and every one.  (I think Gabe made at least three new friends with his exclamations of how "awesome" their creations were!).

One of my favorite artists was a woman named Jude McConkey, who featured beautiful and somewhat haunting photographs, in addition to the most amazing jewelry which contained pieces of her work.  Jude was originally from Ohio (like me) and has since transplanted to Michigan.  She has a couple of websites where you can buy her jewelry and her photographs, and I just wanted to share it with you all...seriously, she is crazy-talented!
