Intro

I am always after the next, new hobby. I'm a serial hobbyist. I try something, and do it not half badly, but then I get intrigued by something else, and I'm off again. So, after over 1/2 century of this behavior, I'm going to be stern with myself. My 'newest' shiny is anticlastic metalworking. My experience in metalworking? One introduction metalsmithing class at the local University Craft Center where I learned about safety and a youtube video. I kid you not.

So my goal is to do an anticlastic piece almost every day and record the results over the next year. See what I learn, see what happens, see the ideas, see what I do with it, see where it ends up! Wish me luck.

Day 19

Rockhound friend, Daniel, shared the work of Charles Lawton-Brain with me!!! One day, one year, I'll have to make a pilgrimage to one of Mr. Lawton-Brain's workshops!

So inspired, I am taking 2 days to create a pair of 'Rueger Fold' earrings!

Before

one hammered

An earring!
11:08pm - My challenge is to make a matching earring tomorrow.
