The first 5-day intensive I will be teaching next year at my studio will be on January 7-11. By popular demand, the focus will be pictorial and architectural jewelry, but mokume-gane may be covered as well. We will make at least two pieces, one flat and one 3D. The flat pieces involve using perspective, while the 3D involves constructing hollow forms, including rings. Here are some samples (more available here<\/a>).

Holly Gage<\/strong> will be coming to teach two workshops at my studio in February.<\/p>\n

First workshop: Ever-Changing World: Kinetic Jewelry<\/em>
\nFebruary 11-12, 2012, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Personal memorabilia and the theme of moving on in an “ever-changing world” will become the inspiration for the elements in your kinetic necklace. The technical portion of this project is inspired by constantly changing designs in wind kinetics and wind sculpture. We will push it to the limits as we explore free moving parts, riveted connections, and the mesmerizing sub-patterning created through this process to make a beautiful piece of jewelry that makes a statement.<\/p>\n

Bring a piece of personal memorabilia that has meaning to you. Anything can be used as inspiration, such as a pattern on a piece of cloth, a trinket, or a picture. This item is meant to stimulate your creativity, so no anxiety necessary.<\/p>\n

$30.00 Kit supplied by teacher: stencil paper, tracing paper, pencil, sandpaper, 3M polishing papers, polishing cloth, sterling wire 14g.<\/p>\n

Class includes all basic tools needed for class. The only things students need to buy are: PMC3 25g, fire in place gems (optional). Also optional: Your own personal tools, magnifying lens, Ott light, etc. <\/p>\n
