Top Secret!!!
Many things have been happening in the studio but I can not talk about them! Yes it's greatly frustrating to see Ron produce items so unique that I am not allowed to share because the recipient could accidentally have a glimpse of their surprise to be! Some of these items I haven't even set my eyes on and I work in the studio, so don't feel left out!
Ron is going to be producing new vases, jewelry and (hopefully) bookmarks for the RCC gallery and the Christmas show. He is going to be using his engraving skills and creating a different type of jewelry line. This is not the typical material that you have seen him use. It's brand new this year and he is in the design phases right now.
The greatest part of trying new things is learning how the material works, developing a great design and finally seeing those two things mesh into a successful piece of finely crafted art. Getting it right on the first try is every artist dream. The journey learning new techniques is often it's own reward, but it is even sweeter when something is produced for another person's enjoyment.
Stayed tuned for exciting studio news! Hope I've got your peaked your curiosity!
