The Poetry of Motion – Kinetic Earrings with Ace McCasland

Tuesday, July 7 & Wednesday, July 8, 9AM-4PM both days
Studio 2 – Green Box Workshop

In this two-day workshop, learn how to make a variety of hollow forms, how to bezel set rose cut gemstones and other cabochons, and how to hinge it all together for movement
into kinetic sculptures for your ears. You will walk away, or better yet, strut away, with at least one fantastic pair of kinetic earrings that are (almost) as unique as you are.  Class fee includes ALL materials including sterling silver, two rose cut stones, use of equipment, and all tools and materials needed to complete the project.

Ace, of Studio Luna Verde, settled in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, after many years exploring and hiking and driving all over the western U.S. Experiences have included driving 1950s era tour buses for Green Tortoise Adventure Travel / performing with a three ring circus / hiking into (and out of) the Grand Canyon so many times she’s lost count / traveling and living out of a ’72 Toyota Landcruiser for three (and a half) years / and failing miserably at surfing on the Sea of Cortez in Baja California. She loves spicy chocolate, and lightening storms. Her largest creation thus far is having built her own studio, where she currently makes her eclectic jewelry and unabashedly embraces the art of imperfection.
