Note: This class is currently full. We are taking names for the waitlist and we will inform you if a spot opens up.
Anticlastic raising is a revolutionary technique with vast design possibilities. It offers a whole new vocabulary of metalworking that results in sensuous lightweight hollow structures. Learn these simple yet sophisticated techniques directly from Michael Good, the master goldsmith who made the process famous. Learn to use specialized stakes and hammers to move a sheet of metal into lightweight yet strong flexible structures with a sensuous elegance. Through his guidance you will create a series of sophisticated forms as a basis for new directions in your work.
Prerequisite: Fabrication 2, Metalsmithing 1 or experience.
Michael Good will also teach Advanced Anticlastic Raising.
Michael Good, of Rockport, Maine, is one of the most successful jewelry designers of our time. Largely self-taught, Michael worked with Heikki Seppä the developer of the sinosoidal stake and the concept of inverse raising, and pushed the techniques to new levels in his own work. Michael has won numerous awards and his work is sold through the finest jewelry stores and galleries.

SNAG Toronto part 4
I'll leave my Toronto report with a few notes about the conference lectures and presentations. I'd have to say that there certainly was a mosaic of diversity in the 3+ days at the Royal York Hotel. From Damian Skinner's stoic keynote series on the jewelry making/marketing universe in his musical New Zealand accent, through a series of very short "rapid-fire" presentations by a wide variety of artists, to the Professional Development Seminar that lashed the artists and their works to the…See More

Jennifer Dewey left a comment for John Lunn"Regardless of concert, we could meet Saturday morning and walk into show together... I do want to show you the extra chasing tools at some point (hope I remember to pack them - note to self), in case you want any of them :) Here's my cell…"
John Lunn left a comment for Jennifer Dewey"Im doing the standing room only on the dance floor at Santana. I stand all day at my work bench so standing through a concert is no biggie for me.
Otherwise, after the show or the next morning we could have breakfast and head into the jewelry…"

Jennifer Dewey left a comment for John Lunn"So glad you'll be able to buzz through show... it is HUGE, I hear, so probably difficult to meet up there.
I was thinking about seeing Santana... maybe I'll bite the bullet and we could meet up there. What section are your…"
