I took an Anticlastic Raising workshop a few weeks ago. This is a good thing. I was having flashbacks to making angels throughout the 90’s. It was a good feeling to be significantly shaping metal once again. There is something very empowering to taking a flat sheet of metal and, with the use of a tool or two, ending up with a functional piece of jewelry. We made bangles. We made neck pieces. We made bracelets. Mostly we learned tips and shared camaraderie with fellow jewelers. Our instructor was Kevin O’Dwyer, from Ireland. Time well spent. Thanks Kevin!
Workshops Are a Good Thing
