After several months without a space for metal smithing, the lockdown restrictions have been lifted further, and I can go to the community workshop where I volunteer as a shop monitor, and finally get to work on the silver ideas I’ve been mulling over since the end of 2020. Last Thursday was the opening day for participants, and I was able to get these earrings to the forming stage. I hope to finish them this week, and then continue my silver garden with companion pieces. It’s fun to be back at the bench!
I completed my large generative painting (Study VI) and began two new ones: a black gesso wide landscape one and a large white gesso neutral pop color painting. My productivity has increased significantly: not surprising since I once again have decent childcare with the loosening of covid rules for after school programs.
