This bracelet titled “Unraveling FDA is just finished.

It turned out amazing, but it was extremely challenging to finish this bracelet. I thought it would take seven days to construct. It took seven months of constant struggle.

Fabrication of Unraveling FDA

This gallery of images (below) is designed to provide insight into the more the seven month effort to complete this bracelet. What it does not reveal is the level of concern and frustration when this did not look good. It was really difficult to create this bracelet so it was both beautiful and provocative. E.L. Doctorow described the creative journey as “Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way."
