I'm finally getting to read everyone's feedbacks to Danielle's post. Very interested and kind of surprised. Am I so naive for not ever realizing or figuring out if I'm a academic or non-academic jeweler? I never really thought we can split into th...

Cristine Bossler makes a very interesting point. Educators and students are much more likely to write and present in this forum than production people. This is for many reasons already mentioned, but I will add another. When organizing the Profes...

Personally I think that the problem is with perception. I don’t believe SNAG (Society of North American Goldsmiths) is exclusive. After all membership is not jured and call for images, publications, and lectures are open to all to submit. I would...

It seems to me that it is important that SNAG have and maintain a vision. I think that there is a problem when it starts pandering to every person that feels like they don't belong. That said, organizations should evolve to remain pertinent, but m...

Additional Work Info you would like to share
I use clean, simple geometric forms to create elegant and comfortable jewelry with a playful twist. Many of my pieces have kinetic elements designed to attract and engage the wearer. The kinetic elements that I incorporate into these structured pieces add unexpected fluidity and movement. Pearls or stone settings may spin like a propeller, slide freely across wires like an abacus, or rock to and fro like a see-saw. These articulated parts rely on the wearer for motion, which can be a simple turn of the body or a deliberate manipulation of the movable parts. This dynamic aspect of the work creates an intimate and unique relationship between jewelry and wearer.

To SNAG or not to SNAG, that is the question...

...well, not really, but it makes for a catchy (or should I say kitschy) blog title!

SNAG = Society of North American Goldsmiths. "An international educational nonprofit organization which supports and advances the professional practice of artists, designers, jewelers and metalsmiths." (or so they state on their website...)

Tip & Review: Suspension Shadow Boxes for Jewelry Display

I was recently invited to participate in an art exhibition that was, ironically and unfortunately, not prepared to display jewelry. Normally I would shy (or run) away from organizations not able to properly display/secure jewelry. However, this exhibition pulled on my heart strings. It is the first exhibition for the past scholarship recipients of the Allied Artists of Johnstown---a scholarship I… Continue

The article entitled "What Works: Selling Your Goods on the Etsy Craft Site" is a candid, tactful and informative introduction to Etsy for members of the Jeweler's Resource Bureau.… Continue

Hey you! This is a very good way to keep in touch. Now we get to have Lena in the circle! I have a few other friends whose work are nominated for the Niche awards. Lets all go there together and have a party afterward :) See you at BMAC!

Hi Danielle -

I applied to Artisphere also. It's a really nice show to do - let's hope the sales pick up this year!

I was chosen as a 2009 NICHE Award Finalist, too, for my "Polka Dot Branch Brooch II." Hope you win and aren't the "Susan Lucci" of the NICHE Awards, several times nominated but never won...

I just got back from Edinburgh Scotland yesterday so I'm busy getting to e-mail - had a great trip but it's back to work now!

See you in February,
Michael
