http://cybiesoriginals.storenvy.com/ Now, a little about this last piece, I entered it into a contest on Deviant Art... and WON 1st place!!!!
DESCRIPTION: A sort of "goth" style
Light weight black metal chain with a tarnished rose with
two emerald like crystal gems encased inside of golden scarabs on either side.
The matching earrings are roses made of hand dyed material.
1st place winner of the 2013 Summer Contest "The stuff
of nightmares".
"From Death to Tombs" As black roses are often a
symbol of death or impending doom, the scarab has it's own place in the process
of death. Beginning at the end of the First Intermediate Period scarabs became
common as they were often incorporated into tombs as grave goods. For some
death and burial are truly a thing of nightmares.
Now onto the subject of color correction and crap...
I was recently at a friends house when I wanted to show her my new pieces, when
she went to my shop site I saw that all the colors on my images were blue or
purple or pinkish tones. I thought at first it was her monitor, but then
it was the same on her laptop. When I got home I looked at it on my
laptop... (never work on the shop on it) and damn if it wasn't the same on mine
too. SO... off to the editor I went (wish I could afford Photoshop CS5...
would be awesome) anyways, off to the editor to attempt to correct the
problem. Got my sister-in-law on chat to help look at them, but it looked
wrong on my desktop screen. SO the next evening my husband came home and
suggested doing a calibration on my monitor. Did it and WOW... what a
difference. Now everything looks the same on my desktop too. SO ...
the long process of editing the colors on ALL of my items in my shop.
This is going to take a long time! *sigh*
Wish me luck!
