Mixed my colors for inlay into a walnut bowl using Anita Long’s app that was a dream once I got the hang of it.

Ran my colors by good friend and guru Lindly who sent me a black and white photo of my inspiration to more clearly track the value spread (the lights and darks) and the proportions of colors (lots of blues, small pops of pink/purple/orange contrasts). I’d forgotten that trick.

Made a quick pair of earrings from scrap. Could see I’d missed the proper orange. Help from friends makes the work easier.
