A Moment In History!


One of the proudest pieces I have ever made.
Fabricated from fine silver and spring wire steel 
with enameled pieces of copper which were first chased and repoussed.
7"x 7"

This picture is proof of my utter ecstatic emotion I felt at this very moment. I had just finished this piece with the help of the lovely, Dan, who is behind me, and the help of 2 grad students, at 3 o'clock in the morning last May. 
They saved my life that night. 
What a journey that piece took me on...


Way too happy to finish... The Great Rachel Shimpock had to capture the moment.

It looks so freshly done!
