Carnival Blog- April

The Blog Carnival….a group of jewelers get together via the web, once a month, to post on a topic that has to do with jewelry.  It’s a fun way to hear different opinions from wonderful artists.  Hope you’ll visit their sites and read their great blogs.

“What is your favorite technique?”

 

I can never choose one.  Hmmm…that totally sounds like my problem.  An inability to focus.  I’m working on that, but for now, I’ll share a couple.  I really like anything challenging and difficult.  Also something I have to work on.  I love box construction, hollow forms, and layers.  This probably is influenced by my college days where I received a BS in Interior Design with a focus on interior architecture for commercial space.  I really enjoyed technical drawing…isometrics, plans, and thinking about how it all would be constructed.  Engineering something that lasts, something that is well constructed, and something visually interesting.

 

I also love surface and texture embellishment.  I love color and enjoy a lot of enameling techniques.  I also love granulation, Keum Boo, and resins.

 

What do you love?  Post a comment….I’d love to get to know you better.  Have a great weekend and make something you love!
