Saturday's Progress


Making progress on my final project, made a chain for it since I didn't have thicker gauge wire.

Long Day

Even though classes ended, that did not mean my work was near done. Ugh. My brooches and sea grapes pendant is almost done, which I am really happy about it. The leaves are close to being done, just got to solder some more in place and sand and patina them. My arms hurt, from raising my 12 inch vessel, do not know why I decided it would be Awesome if I "magically" turned it into a vase that was 8 inches high. It still has long ways to go. My 6 inch vessel is almost done, yay. Decided to change my idea on that one, I did not like that it was so rounded, so I switched it. Left the studio, now for some CAD work on my laptop, sadly no flamingo. Darn.

Finals are coming up

So its that time of the semester again, when people are cramming to finish their projects. I cannot believe that the semester is almost over. Time flies for sure. So I got to raise my 12 inch vessel and my 6 inch vessel more. Yay. The 6 in is almost done while the other one still needs more raising to go. Worked mostly on my Metalsmithing vessels and catanoid more.

Bronze Spiculums

So as crazy as I am, I decided for my final project in Metalsmithing to make medium size bronze Spiculums to hold my six inch vessel. It is a pain. Since bronze gets tough to work with when forming. Ugh. Anywho here's my progress.
