Custom work

I love to do custom pieces. There is nothing like letting your creativity run free while creating something one of a kind. It's always a challenge to try to make the customer happy while actually making the piece work. Here are just a few of the many custom pieces I have done for customers in the past.

Students are so creative!

As some of you know I am a certified PMC instructor. Last weekend I taught a PMC (Precious Metal Clay) workshop. The women in the workshop had no prior experience in working with PMC. They learned the basics of how the material works and they each got to use a package of PMC to make whatever they wanted. Below are images of their pieces. What a great job they did!
