Carnavale in Bienne, watch makery, and random snap shots from the month!

I got to go to Carnavale in Bienne with some of my FInnish friends (and we are all going to Finland at the end of April as well!).  It was really fun and we had on proper costumes.  At first, we saw NO people in costume, but then realized it was still to early (only 10pm) and low and behold, more arrived after midnight. Europeans really know how to stay out all night.…See More

Part two, the Musée d'Orsay and Dali Exhibition and some random shots

I had such a great time being a tourist in Paris, I want to go back and explore a bit more and some obscure things as well.  Next time Gadget, next time bwahhhahhhahhha.Some of the exhibition was able to be photographed, so I did so liberally.  This is a sketch in just ink, I think it's magnificent.  This reminds me of a doodle…See More

The new year is off to a great start

Christmas this year was interesting.  I decided that I would go to my butcher and ask for a turkey, not too big though.  She told me I could have 3-3.5 kg at the most and I said fine; although I was worried that wouldn't feed 5 people.  Tom got home and he seemed pretty small (because he wasn't a frozen butterball turkey, he was a wild(ish) one that still had feathers on his ankles giving the appearance of socks).  And this was my FIRST time cooking a turkey all alone, first time making…See More

Snowy and Beautiful

This winter we got our first snow in October and this month in particular, we have gotten about 3 1/2 feet of snow already.  Though this Christmas week, the temperatures are to soar to 11 degrees (celsius) so no more of the powdery fun stuff.These icicles just formed over the course of the weekend, so fast! …See More

What Have I Been Up To?

Since returning from Istanbul, it has been non-stop in the workshop, preparing work for orders and making some new pieces too. I've sidelined a number of works-in-progress in order to get on with more pressing issues, so there are no updates on my Chanel-inspired piece or my tribute to Alexander McQueen, though I have progressed apace with my first foray into electronics in jewellery, "14th Century Nightlife" which I hope to finish finally this coming week after it sitting on my bench for…See More

Showing Publicly and Building a Legacy Privately

- by Rebecca Rose. 2013, SNAG/crafthaus Scholarship Recipient

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!
