Guest speakers from Geoflora!
|
Guest Speakers Margaret and Ellen Hinrichs, the owners and artists of Geoflora Jewelry, spoke via Skype with the Metals students. In this informal session they talked about how to set up and run a small business. They shared advice about selling through Etsy, how to approach a gallery, how they created their brand, and talked about what life is like for them after school. |

Margaret and Ellen have their B.F.A. in Metal Design from East Carolina University. They run a successful small business from their home making wearable art, which they sell online and through several galleries. |

These ladies were amazing and left us all inspired and ready to get to work! Thank you Margaret and Ellen for sharing your time and knowledge with us!
Enameling Comes to VSU!
|
With a generous grant from the Enamelist Society, we were able to purchase the tools and materials necessary to focus on enameling this semester in the Jewelry/ Metalsmithing II class! |
|
We are hard at work and very excited about color. Check the student work tab for examples of what we've been making! |
