ABOUT THE PENDANT:
I have long admired the work of Artist Cathy Hoynes of www.greyhoundstudies.com and I absolutely loved working with her on this project. Kathy seemed to 'get it' imediately when I asked her to come up with a greyhound drawing that incorporated a starfish somewhere in the image.
Kathy really outdid herself with the breathtaking image she presented to me, which we have now dubbed 'STARGREY'.
With no revisions neccesary, I imediately had the image cast in sterling silver and suspended in a slightly twisted sterling oval and topped with a substantial curlique bail.
I am thrilled to introduce this original artwork keepsake Greyhound pendant with it's elegant swirling S shape head and neck and curly starfish anchoring the base.
