Here in the USofA, Monday is our Memorial Day so I have 3 days at home to play in the studio.
But yesterday I did not stay home, I went to Diane's where with Sandy; the three of us started another cuff. I am doing a ginkgo cuff, Sandy is doing spirals and Diane is doing the dogwood flowers - all designs from Davide Bigazzi. Diane did the ginkgo and I did the dogwood while at his studio last month. None of us did the spiral but we are helping each other so they will be easier than if we have no help! Here is a photo of the cuff's from that workshop, in progress.

Today I am working on the last of the repousse for the ginkgo's and I am just about to start the chasing. I am also depletion gilding a sterling silver cuff that I will add some keum-boo to. I have also repositioned the Sea Urchin II in the pitch pot so I can finish up that repousse.
Tomorrow I hope to finish the keum-boo cuff - polishing, forming and patina; and maybe the chasing on the ginkgo cuff.
Pictures tomorrow of progress or finished work!
