Few days ago I went to a crystal and gemstone shop in Camden Town, and I took pictures of a few interesting crystals and stones. My favourite gemstone has to be Opal. The colours inspired me the most. I love how the stones look with light going through it. It gives a really soft and calm atmosphere. In the shop I also spotted quite a few mystical pieces of jewellery too. I thought that might help me with my designs at a later stage. I also would have bought a few big crystals so I can examine them in details but they were too expensive. So instead I bought several smaller ones which were cheaper. I will be experiment and draw from them soon.
These photos are not in good quality. It is very hard to capture a close up under such dim lights. I guess I will have to look at some books with gemstones in it. However this research is still very interesting for me, I get to touch each stones. I cant experience that from just looking.
