Rainforest Jewel Geocoin

Beschreibung

Deutsch

Das Design der Rainforest Jewel Geocoin wurde wie immer von Tsunrisebey von Hand gezeichnet. Sie brauchte über einen Monat, um letztendlich eine zufriedenstellende Form zu finden. Obwohl die Frösche nicht gerade geliebt wurden, konnte der Designer während einer Reise nach Belize einige Baumfrösche sehen und sogar in der Hand halten. Tsunrisebey war fasziniert von den kleinen Kerlchen und zollte Mutter Natur ein Dankeschön in Form dieser Geocoin. Die Coin scheint durch die Verwendung der translucent Farben zu leuchten wie in der Natur. Sie wird geziert von 17 kleinen Strasssteinchen. Bei der ersten Auflage haben die Frösche rote Steinchen als Augen und grüne Steinchen an den Füßen. Bei der zweiten Auflage sind die Augen blau und die Füße rot. Wieder sind die geliebten Libellen auf der Coin dargestellt. Aus der Form des Frosches auf der Coin sollte später ihre Cache Hopper Geocoin entstehen, die sie letztendlich dann als Schmuckanhänger verwendete. Die Rainforest Jewel Coin ist Tsunrisebeys Lieblingsdesign.

The design of the Rainforest Jewel Geocoin was, as always, handdrawn by Tsunrisebey. It took over a month to find a satisfactory shape finally. Although the frogs were not exactly loved, the designer could see some tree frogs during a trip to Belize and even hold them in her hands. Tsunrisebey was fascinated by the little guys and paid tribute to Mother Nature, a thank you in the form of this geocoin. The Coin seems to shine through the use of translucent colors as in nature. It is decorated with 17 small rhinestones. In the first edition the frogs have red stones for eyes and green stones on the feet. In the second edition they have blue eyes and orange-red toes. Again you can see the beloved dragonflies on the Coin. Later the shape of the frog without the leaves was used for the Coin Hopper Geocoin, that she ultimately turned into a pendant. The Rainforest Jewel Coin is Tsunrisebeys favorite design, she loves it very much.

"These were another Belize inspired coin. ... I spent a small portion of summer 2007 there studying with a Mayan Indain tribe. ... with the abundance of wildlife surrounding me, I was really touched by all the frogs I saw down there. So many beautiful colors and designs! I've never really been a big frog person but after holding these little tiny, delicate creatures, I fell in love with them. They had these little suction cup toes and I just thought that was so neat, a great little natural feature of a creature " (Groundspeak Forum)
