Materials
size 13 japanesse ring plug, silver art clay, ring mold, torch, evenheat kiln, silver syringe, lots of sanding, brass brush
What was your inspiration?
two classes- torch fired silver clay and kiln fired silver clay as they were both what gave me the knowledge to make this- I made the buda head with molds from the epoxy class- the silver halo in the torch fired class and theres no way I would of used my kiln without the kiln class- I was scared to.
Craftsy gave me the inspriation to make this.
What are you most proud of?
that when my ring broke as I was sanding it out of the mold I did not skip a beat but turned to see what I could do to make it more than just a band- (you know I was crying)
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
have fun in all you do and do what you love- life is too short not to and when people say you should sell your things ask them what they want to give you for them.. :) that makes them rethink their words.. :) giggle..
take the classes before you do other things- books can give great advice however there is nothing like being able to turn your pc on and review something to make sure you are doing it correctly.
