I've got a brand new online workshop for you and I think you're going to love it as much as I do...The Alchemy of Objects. If you've ever struggled with design, this is the class for you! Design and found objects are two of my very favorite aspects of jewelry making and in this workshop we get to play with both.
I'll give you an in-depth look into my personal creative process. You'll learn about the importance of design elements and principles and see how to apply them to your pieces. Each week I'll be posting a "Design Challenge" video that will walk you through the steps to design and create a beautiful piece of jewelry. You will be challenged to put the principles from the video into action and create your own challenge piece. I can't wait to see what the results!
In addition, I'll take you through lots of techniques with "Technique Essentials" and "Focus on Focal" videos. In these lessons, you'll learn specific techniques as well as how to work with found objects.
This workshop contains over 30 videos, so I'll be running the class for two full weeks longer than I usually would to give you maximum viewing time. I can't even tell you how much great stuff is crammed into this workshop!
This is an online class unlike any I've ever taught and I'm so excited to offer it to you! I hope you'll join me and discover The Alchemy of Objects.

The workshop will run for 11 weeks on my private classroom site. Videos will be posted over the first six weeks of class to facilitate weekly design challenges.
Once the videos are posted, students will be able to view them at any time. This means you can work in your jammies at three in the morning, if you like! I will be available the entire duration of the workshop for questions and troubleshooting. PDF's of the tools/supplies list will be provided after registration.
Registration:
Registration will remain open until Oct. 15th. After registration, I'll email you a username and password for the classroom. You should recieve it within three days of registration. Once you're logged into the classroom, you will be able to access the tools and supplies list and watch a few intro videos. I will also email you an invitation to our Yahoo group and our Flickr group.
Share yourself:
There will be a Yahoo group site for you to post questions, comments and chat with each other and with me. There will be a flickr group for you to post photos of your lovely work, if you so desire.
How long will the videos be accessible? I'm sking because I wouldn't be able to start until October.
