Heart shrines from Gesing

by Cynthia Tinapple on January 15, 2010 · 4 comments

One more little heart to end the week. Ohio’s Michele Gesing (Gabriel Studios) nestles hearts in wearable polymer shrines and niches. Using her own molds she turns lushly textured and painted pieces into buttons, beads, and buckles (great idea).

Her work has ancient air and very personal point of view. “I’m an acquired taste,” Michele says of herself. Read her charming profile to learn more….and have a charming weekend.

Her shop is expectional. Some of the hearts remind me to the grudge look.
They are fabulous.
