About Me
- Jen Parrish
- Boston area, MA, United States
- Parrish Relics is a dream come true for me. Over the years I have been lucky enough to create for museums & the entertainment industry…for romantics who daydream about Venice, obsess over flora and fauna, admire Medieval oddities, worship Pre-Raphaelite Bohemians or just enjoy a well adorned fairy tale...
There is so much mystery in this art; it makes muted colors, fog, cloudy days even more beautiful and intriguing! I LOVE IT. How did your jewelry show go? We are anxious to know. Anita
ReplyDeletethank you so much Anita!
ReplyDeletethe show wasn't great, too many vendors and an out of the way spot but I had a great time! always fun to get out of the studio and meet people....I can't be a hermit all the time :)
I'm sure there is much symbolism here as well as a compelling visual.
ReplyDeleteDo you know what the "A" represents?
"The Madonna is surrounded by leafless branches of a tree from which hang fifteen golden letters, symbols of the Hail Mary"
ReplyDeleteHow inspiring! Of course, I see the Madonna in the tree wearing the red cloak, but a turquoise gown beneath it and replace the wee baby Jesus with a baby cat and there is my "Tree of Golden Letters with a Baby Cat"!
ReplyDeleteOh Jen I adore this!!! the red, the branches, the letters, and those wonderful faces! How beautiful!!!
