An Added Touch

An Added Touch Welcome to An Added Touch. Please let me know if you want to purchase a hand-crafted and kiln fired Copper is my latest love.

I have been carving out my niche in the ever-expanding jewelry market. Stringing began as a little hobby that has become an obsession! I love unique glass beads, just about every semi-precious gemstone and metals. Last year I discovered the wonderful Kazuri beads made by the women in Kenya and decided to try making my own ceramic beads. My mother had been a china painter and her kiln was sitting t

here waiting to be used. When my hairstylist, who makes wonderful pottery, encouraged me to give bead making a try, I decided to put the kiln to use! My latest creative venture is making porcelain and stoneware clay pendants and beads that I glaze and then fire in the little electric kiln. Most of my beads are fired to a cone 6, which is mid-range and this produces a very sturdy bead or pendant; one that will not likely chip in everyday use. I am investigating the use of low fire clay and glazes and sometime soon will perhaps be listing some of these. I am what is called a "newbie" in this venture and am learning as I go.

Art in the Park was on an oppressively hot day but sales were good. Thanks to all of my customers who ventured to Miller Park and purchased my creations. I will be at Artists at the Market on every Wednesday and Thursday, 1-4, from July 11 to August 23, and Sundays, 12-4, from July 8 to July 29. On Sunday, August 5, I will be at Art in the Park in Miller Park, in Chautauqua Institution. Then I will be back at the Market on Sunday, Aug. 12 and 19. I look forward to seeing repeat customers and hope to meet new customers. Come visit.

Working, working. Some new creations. I have been trying new things. There is a small batch of ceramic pieces in the kiln right now. New Kazuri beads are stockpiled, ready to be used in new things. I have been gathering some nice pieces from other ceramic artists. Summer is coming!

And now it is autumn. I will be back in the studio, working to create more stock for future shows.
