'steropes' cave' 

9"x11"

"...And again, she bore the Cyclopes, overbearing in spirit, Brontes, and Steropes and stubborn-hearted Arges, 

who gave Zeus the thunder and made the thunderbolt: in all else they were like the gods, 

but one eye only was set in the midst of their foreheads. 

And they were surnamed Cyclopes because one orbed eye was set in their foreheads. 

Strength and might and craft were in their works..."

a couple more pendants: stalactite drip and the cave ... 

(and thora-the resident cave-beast.)
these are half hammered/blackened, and half polished. simple. i like them.

and to heat things up a bit... what beats a good cumbia?

out of nowhere this song came up just as i was thinking about the relationship i need to form with this new frozen winterworld of darkness & cold...
i loved this tape as a kid, and the video makes me laugh.
i like the final scene where his bony body is silhouetted against his transparent bouffant sleeves
