Day Class with Ali Kauss

I took a day class from Ali Kauss of Spring Green
to learn how to set a cabochon.

She's a very patient, good, fun instructor
who teaches other classes.

I set my first stone....

and reminded myself how to solder.

This is what I brought home, wore that night out to supper...

and SOLD IT!

about 2" x 5/8", sterling, bronze, 

and a blue stone that I forgot the name of.

New MetalHeads

These are the latest two:

 

The first two metal heads were made crudely and quickly.

I made them out of desperation. 

I needed to find something that worked

as Personal Protectors.

  An experiment.

They would reside close to my ears.
They will listen and hear 

whatever comes off the radio,
out of speakers, out of mouths,
hearing everything within earshot
in all my surroundings.
They will hear it all.
Absorbing all,

 before any of it has a chance to reach MY ears.

They will filter out all bad, 

all lies, 

and all disturbing noise.

 
I suppose that's why they have already disturbed expressions.

Knowing these first two would need to be relieved,

I began to make more.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them yet.

I make them as needed. 

There will be more.
