Spring class schedule up at West City - classes start February 3 and 6 WCCPL (West City Campus, Point Loma) is a top-notch jewelry/metals lab only about a mile away from Anneville Studio. With a class maximum of 20 and a large room full of professional equipment, it is a vibrant and social place to learn. Registration for these classes is through the school, not me! Just follow the links to register:  Jewelry and Metalworking - Advanced Mondays, 9am-1pm, February 6 - May 22 (holidays - Feb 20 and March 27) cost $412 - that's under $30 for each 4 hour class - best deal in town! For our first project we will delve into the mysteries of using liver of sulphur patina on silver while creating a pair of earrings and a ring with soldered disc centerpiece. Rather than just black, we'll be using special techniques to get and keep amazing blues, magentas and gold colors. Next, we'll learn photo-etching and create a layered mullti-color brooch with our etched metal. Lastly, we'll make another ring - but this time with a carved shank and a central stone. Students new to me are welcome, but you should have basic jewelry/metalworking skills (soldering, sawing, filing, some forming). Register.  Jewelry and Metalworking - Beginning to Advanced Mondays, 2-5pm, February 6 - May 22 (holidays - Feb 20 and March 27) - cost $314 Learn the basics or expand your skills while creating three projects. We'll start by creating a unique cuff bracelet from copper, move on to make a photo-etched pendant, and finish with a silver ring with stone. Beginners are welcome - you'll receive lots of how-to handouts and instructions on purchasing a beginner toolkit on the first day of class. Register. Friday Jewelry Fabrication Lab
Fridays, 9am-1pm, February 3 - May 19 (holidays on Feb 17 and March 31) cost $412 This lab is designed to give students more time in the studio to work on their current jewelry or metalsmithing projects. No new projects given or scheduled demos, but I'm happy to help with ongoing projects. Students must have taken jewelry classes at West City or with me within the past year. Register.

Really enjoyed teaching this past fall - I had an advanced class and a lab class, with folks working on so many different types of jewelry and metalwork projects. I love the excitement and challenge of helping each student make their unique design a reality. Kudos to all the student work pictured below: Karen R.'s neckpiece, Alyssa's stone pendant, Mary's bees, Susan's tree, Janet's tube-set earrings (representative of 10+ folks who followed through on the project and also made simliar earrings) and Karla's elegant copper earrings. Keep up the good work!  Tool Sale at Anneville - January 6, 2017  Find the tools to start something new in 2017! I recently received a generous donation of tools and supplies from former students, and it is time to pass them along to new homes. These are all jewelry/metals specific tools - many of them used only lightly, some need some TLC. Prices will be low!

Cash preferred, cards okay. Doors open promptly at 5pm on Friday, January 6th at Anneville Studio. No prior sales inquiries, please! |
