About the Artist
Blair brings over 30 years experience of silversmithing to Glen Echo Park as founder of SilverWorks Studio & Gallery and Studio 2: Hot metal. An award winning artist, represented by thirty+ galleries throughout North America, Blair has shown her work in one-woman shows as well as juried fine craft shows. Previous awards include a Canadian grant for The Works, a public installation of her framed wearable art and a NICHE award for her one-of-a-kind eyewear.
Artist Statement
My new collection this year delves deeply into rich textures, oxidation, and patinas. But I continue my life long love affair with opals. Alternate materials and techniques like fusion, feathers, fossils and Fordite pepper the work. But my tradition of connecting a wearer with a story told in metal continues.
