Well, yes, I have been attending a jewelry course down here in Argentina, and so I thought I'd show you it is I have been working on. I carved each of these pieces in wax first, then had them cast in silver. Sounds easy, right? Not exactly, but I have found that I really love carving wax and being able to transform my drawings into 3D objects. I have a great teacher, Carlos, who is also just really funny to be around, so I often stayed at school, carving away for 8 hours a day (like a "real" job!). Here's what I have finished so far:
A reminder to wear on your wrist...
A simple and sweet bird...
For the shell collector...
This is one half of what will be a small seashell locket...
All of these pieces are to be incorporated into my "Summer 09" jewelry line. There's more coming, too-rings! Stay tuned...

I LOVE these...especially the bird and the bracelet! I can't wait to see them in person!! :)
