PARTICIPATORY SPORT FOR CRAFT ARTISTS
This flower pin is one of my favorites.
If you want a pin that is a signature Harriete Estel Berman piece that this is it. Taking the most mundane of materials and transforming it into something amazing. Note the little red tomato center from a Hunt's Tomato can.
The pin will be noticed every where you go.
Pam is such a weird consumer product, and yet the can is so great!!!!!!!!
Did you ever think about the 1000's of dollars spent on designing packaging. This packaging is like a work of art, yet it is normally just thrown away.
These flower pins are all one of a kind, totally, weird and original.

For the next 13 months we'll discuss the trials, triumphs, and tribulations of exhibiting in art shows as emerging artists and established artists. Exhibition coverage will be balanced with tips on how to strategically build a legacy over a length of time, in a way that makes sense to your individual goals as an artist and maker.
Join us each month! There will be surprises around every corner, with photos, videos, SNAG conference coverage, and occasional interviews by rising artists!
Please support this effort:
A group of 10 young US jewelry artists will attend Sierrad this Fall showing their work to the European market - and bringing back exciting info for all of us!
