So, here's a bit of the Madness, today. I've been working on new pieces lately, and it's been a lot of fun. The new collection is called "Triads", however it is still a work in progress. It will be comprised of nine necklaces divided in 3 sub-collections, all with raw Larimar stones for maximum impact. Five of them are ready for some loving while I work on the last four. But before I share the images of the ones already done, I wanted to share some news. You see, I will be joining a group of very talented artists on a residency program in Japan. I am now part of the Fusion family of artists. This is a dream come true for me, and though I'm not much of a pictures kind of guy, I'll try to take a few to share with y'all. So for the remainder of April, I will be enjoying the creative process in the land of the rising sun. To learn more about it and meet the other artists, visit THIS website. And now, for the main event, here are the pictures of the 5 pieces from the new collection.

So, as promised, here are the news about the new collections being worked on. For the past couple of months, a lot of design work has been done here at theMadness. While I'm still working on the rest of the collections, three of them are ready to be shared. You can check them out with more detail at the Portfolio area of the website, or at the Store. But here's the TLDR on them. In the Vines These 5 pieces are inspired (like most of my work) by nature and its grasp on our reality. The stones are (from left to right) Sodalite, Prehnite, Malachite, Lepidolite and Picture Jasper. The common element in their design is the single vine going around each stone with a couple green leafs, meant to represent that side of nature that is always around us. The next element they share is how each pendant is connected to the neck-string, using a spiral pattern, sharing the color of the stones themselves. Threaded This collection came about from the idea of creating designs meant for wire wrapping and then applying them to thread. The process was quite interesting, considering that I didn't have a thread thin enough to emulate the designs properly. To solve this issue, the regular 1mm Linhasita thread that I regularly use was divided in half, allowing for smaller and more delicate designs. The four chosen Larimar cabochons are truly accentuated by the design around them. I love them, what do you think? Coral Duet When our world evolves, things happen that sometimes we rather ignore. That idea happens in the social level as well as the personal level. One way to represent this concept is mixing deep sea and dry land, considering that what was once underwater for thousands of years is now under our feet as we walk on it. I convey this idea by mixing Coral with vines, leafs and cocoon-like settings for the stones. The result speaks for itself. And yes, it seems like I have a thing for spirals, as well as for nature. I am currently working on five more collections, mostly Larimar stones, yet other stones have already been put aside for future designs and works. Most of them are necklaces, but I do have a few bracelets in the plans. I just have to get around to making them, even though I have found comfort in making neck pieces. There is a lot going on here at the workshop. From new books and stories, collaborations, and even some surprises I rather not spoil just yet. More greatness to come your way so stay tuned for news and updates on these matters. Irie bless!

On December 23rd, 2023, I published "Twenty-One Murders", a suspense short novel with an intense aim towards mental health and self discovery. Three days ago, on February 10th, 2024, I published "Dimensional", known to me as "the Poetic Endeavor" (I like to give weird names to my books sometimes...). It's a poetry compilation with a curated collection of the past 23 years. It is certainly a pleasure for me to finally put these works out there for everyone to enjoy. In these poems you can find my evolution as a person. The many paths I've taken to define who I am, even if they're not in a chronological order. What it does have is a very interesting presentation of the works. It plays with the concept of duality through two main languages, plus a few trilingual pieces, to bring about confusion and critical thought. The truth is that without the poetic endeavor, my evolution as a writer would have never happened. It is through poetry that I play the game of cat and mouse with my thoughts. With new and creative ways to express myself and describe my environment, I bring my truth to live through prose and rhyme. In other news, I also have a few new macramé collections in the works. Beautiful new pieces with great stones and unique designs. I'll be soon releasing some of them so, stay tuned for those. I might bring before and after pictures, but not so much from in between... we'll see. This 2024 will have a lot of new things going on. I have a few surprises, plus a couple good news that I rather wait until they materialize before making any announcements for. But know that theMadness is manifesting proper. Sometimes, good things do happen. Irie bless!
