 For my critique next week I am including some links to artists:

 Loren Schwerd and her Mourning Portrait series. 

Theo Mercier, mostly his work from 2010. 

Hayden Peter's collection of Victorian mourning jewelry.

Wendy Ellsworth, a wonderful bead artist who I took a workshop with this past summer.

I am reading a lot about the personal forms of mourning connected with different religions. I am also reading a book about coping with death and accepting it as part of life. These texts are helping me to hone my ideas, and to simplify the forms that they are taking.
