“Eternity Shield”
“The Lord is my strength and my shield;
My heart trusts and I am helped.”
Psalm 28:7
This is the verse that inspires me so much on this piece. So the cross is made up of four shields and encircled by the eternity circle of protection. This represents the protection that Lord has promises us. The shield is done in orange, golden, and green colors and again accented by 23k gold.

His wreath you may have noticed resembles larva. Perhaps that’s because there is a butterfly in the middle of it.
These lovely peacocks are so crazy about each other that they interlocked necks and just won’t let go!

A beautiful piece inspired by the work of the ancient manuscripts. The letter is inlayed with 23k gold and has spirals and knots throughout.
I had just finished reading one of those great books about Henry VIII England so I was really in the mood for knots and crowns.
Look closely and you will see the celtic sea turtles pointing to the four corners of the earth.
