I had an interesting opportunity to cross over into a new art form with a workshop called SilverSmithing for the Poly Clay Artist. A conference where folks come from all over the US (and a few overseas) to play with clay under the instruction of some of the rock stars in this art form. In a four hour workshop I taught the basics of smithing and the students produced three pieces of jewelry including a pendant that they could fill with their chosen poly clay technique. It also gave me the opportunity to test run the new BlairBlaze torch!
