K is for Kym

K is for Kym.  And so goes the idea of building a special pendant for a special someone.  Kym emailed me with a precious idea to build a birthday present for her husband.  She asked if it would be possible to build a pendant with her first

initial on it.  

      Of course I love the idea of being able to help build something that will have family written into it for years to come, so I accepted the challenge.  Kym gave me a few ideas of size and left the rest of the art design up to me.  

       It seems to me, in my short span of 37 years on this Earth, that anything worth value was built over time and showed its value though the ages.  This is 

what I imagine for Montana Turtle as it slowly develops over the years.  Within time is the key to beauty and happiness.  Kym provided this blessing of time for the sake of beauty.  Her husband's pendant took a near total of over 5 hours to draw and 13 hours to engrave.  What a beautiful letter K for a wonderful thought and warm moment to be shared when her husband opens a gift he may wear for years to come. 

       Thank you Kym for this special opportunity to build something beautiful; and, thank you for the push in the right direction.  Since the making of this pendant, I have gone on to begin developing my own font.  I have the "K" done!
