\"kejka<\/a>I know it will be hard to top Monday\u2019s piece. The energy in that sculpture was unreal. But intensity of that kind is not the only thing that visually defines passion. How about that low but long burning fire many of us have? It may be a passion for art or for our family or friends. It might be how we feel getting out in nature or the desire for adventure. It is not crazy but it is always there and that kind of passion, that persistent, ever present emotion, is sustaining and keeps us focused on the things that are good in our lives and good for ourselves.<\/p>\n

So, to represent that slow burning passion, I picked this mellow yet fiery caned earring and pendant set. There is not the chaos of movement we saw Monday but you can still feel the energy. The Czech Republic’s Kejka creates the energy through\u00a0both the purely warm color palette and the tapered but parallel and highly directional lines. The gradation from dark on the outside to light in the middle on the pendant also gives it a glow.<\/p>\n

Kejka made a series of these flame-like canes in various colors. Take a look at the purple and blue one as well on her Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Inspirational Challenge of the Day: <\/strong>Create or sketch in a completely warm color palette. That means from reds to oranges to yellows. Try either\u00a0creating a subdued feel with your design for these highly energetic colors or see how insanely energetic you can make it.<\/p>\n
