Artist's Comments

Pendant made from a totally black ebony slab, carved, and with a high quality taxidermist's wolf eye inserted from the back and held in place with a layer of walnut wood. The eye is free to move _very_ slightly.

Daily DeviationRaveneye by *DonSimpson is a handmade unique ebony pendant. The depth and flow of the carving is beautiful and eye makes this piece of jewlery a little creepy and interessting. (Suggested by *enui and Featured by ^Myana)

Thank you. :)

The pendants with eyes that I've done are more or less creepy (which is more or less what was intended); I keep wondering if there is a way to do one that is non-creepy, which I think would be neat.

How much?

Thanks for the memories,
Even though they weren't so great.
He tastes like you,
Only sweeter.

That randomly but expertly placed feather...

When you love someone, truely love them, they never really leave you without a memory...

Now this one I don't remember. When did you carve this one?

Wow, that is absolutely stunning! I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again - your work is truly inspiring!

Melissa Mork owns it; I traded it to her for some silver pendants of winged creatures; hawk, cat, and hyena; which I wear a lot. She's very good, but she doesn't have a page on devianART (yet).

I think this was done about a year and a half ago, and I had it on display at one convention immediately afterward, where it found someone before I could get a photo.

I'm having a hard time visualizing that. OK, draw it up and I'll take a look, but I might not be able to make such a thing.
