Back from the Ranch

Bob Ebendorf demo at Anderson Ranch

I just returned from a fabulous week studying with my favorite teacher Bob Ebendorf at Anderson Ranch in Snowmass, Co. We hammered, sawed, riveted and assembled found object art jewelry. It was one of the best workshops I have attended due to my wonderful classmates, high energy and non-stop creativity. In this supportive environment we had lots of fun and made lots of jewelry.

Bob Ebendorf Sawing



Right, Bob is talking about his brooches and on the table are lots of samples that he brings to spark ides. The photo on the right shows Bob demonstrating sawing with a jewelry's saw with Cece and Judy, two students looking on.

Bob Ebendorf's Assemblage Brooches

The photo on the left shows one of Bob’s assemblage pins made from an old tin type photo and frame with a tin bottle cap, built up to be a 3D image. And on the right are several colorful brooches of Bob's made from smooshed tin cans, colorful printed tin, vintage jewelry, coins, bone and brick-a-brak.  For more pics, go here.
