Here's an example of one of my new rings I've made for the ring a day project- Made of oxidized sterling silver and 18k yellow gold.
Yes, it is a complex piece- something that I really love to do, work in a dense manner- I made it in stages........
the tubes I rolled and put together as a collection a few years ago-(I went on a big tube making kick) and the ring I finished in a day-
This is the story with many of my ring a day pieces....I am simply "Finishing" work that I have set aside...you know, those pieces that you just can't seem to make work, and you don't want to send them to refining....
So I guess you could say this ring a day project has me re-purposing some of my work- I must admit, it's pretty satisfying to find homes for these odds and ends!
nuff said- I'm off to the studio now for a FULL DAY of studio work- Yippee! ciao- Maureen
