I’m having the hardest time getting my friend Dalana Castrell’s Jewish-themed artwork to post to my previous blog post. So, I thought I’d post a video of her speaking about her artwork-unfortunately not her Jewish-themed artwork-on PBS. This way you can get a sense of who she is.
Dalana also makes crystal jewelry that looks like tiny pieces of art. That’s how I met her. She was making a pendant in the coffee shop. I saw it and commented on it. Turned out that her young daughter, who is a healer, chooses all the crystals. I asked if Dalana would make a pendant for me. She did, and it is beautiful and the crystals her daughter chose for me were perfect…just what I needed. People are always commenting on the pendant.
Anyway, here’s the video…and if anyone is interested in contacting Dalana about her art, please go to www.purespiritcreations.com and send me an email. (Go to “contact.”) I’ll send your information along to her. Like many people, the recession has been tough on her, and she’s looking for places to show her work and, of course, for people who would like to buy her work.

Dalana was featured in the series iN coNtext on KLRU, Austin’s local PBS channel during November 2006 and February 2007.
