In Class- Thursday, October 15

MacKenzie gave a presentation on artist Sergey Jivetin and Ashley gave a presentation on Joe Wood. If you missed the presentations, take a moment to check out the work of these two artists. Aside from having an opportunity to see the works of various contemporary practitioners of metalwork and jewelry design, these presentations have given us a wonderful opportunity to discuss various conceptual possibilities, materials, working processes, and approaches to design.

Metals I reviewed design proposals and continued to work on the container projects. There was a brief review and demonstration on soldering with two torches.

Advanced Metals had a review/ demonstration of crimping and raising and spent the remainder of the class working on the raised vessels.

For Tuesday:
Fred, Kelaine, and Kari are scheduled to give their presentations at the beginning of class.

Metals I will have a brief demonstration of bezel setting (optional) and continue work on the container project.

Advanced Metals will continue work on the raised vessels.
