St. Simon's Island, GA

I finally got away for a week-end to visit one of my favorite places...St. Simon's Island. 
There was a wonderful art festival sponsored by the Glynn Art Association in the Village. 
I visited theshop of one of my favorite jewelry designers, Gogo Ferguson. Her designs
from rattlesnake bones, armadillo shells, and barnacles cast in gold and silver are stunning!

I bought a wild boar's tusk cuff bracelet made of alpaca...a combination of metals...
of course, I couldn't leave without her book, "Gogo Nature Transformed"...from her
recent exhibit at The High Museum of Art in Atlanta, GA

                                 Gogo's Shop in Redfern Village at St. Simon's Island, GA

                                  Friends...Elizabeth Collins and Chuck Haney from Madison
                        Local Artists...Cathie Parmelee and Traci DeForge teach fun art for kids!
                                            Get your Muse On...Is that cute or what?
