Planting seeds: seed beads bear marvelous fruit in Cindy Wrobel's imaginative sculptures

Article Abstract:

A myriad of seed beads in a multitude of colors, copper wire, found objects, and favorite river and desert rocks are simple tools that find Cindy Wrobel's creations bursting with expression. An appreciation and strong awareness of the art of many cultures, a continuing interest in travel and Wrobel's desire to never stop learning has opened a door to endless possibilities in her artwork.

Things of beauty: Nature inspires elegant forms for designer Karen Olsen Ramsey

Article Abstract:

Repousee and chasing techniques, the use of the Japanese alloy shakudo, and enamel enhance the work of jewellery designer Karen Olsen Ramsay. Pendants are her creation of choice and her attention to detail is seen in their backs, which always have an element that reflects the front side of the pendant and in their chains that she makes by hand.
