Michele and Stephanie have been making jewelry together for the last year, calling their collaborative undertaking Hearts and Bones Studio (heartsandbonesstudio.com). Using an array of techniques – lampwork, wirework, knotting, knitting and stringing, (even Shrinky-Dinks) - their pieces are fresh and bold. Both artists love to teach and are excited to unveil their new workshop, highlighting their most-loved techniques used in their collaborative and individual bodies of work.
Students will create many unique things in this workshop, including rings and earrings with Lucite and glass components, a painted frame of beads and buttons like Michele’s, a bracelet using Stephanie’s signature Spiny Knotting technique and a knitted and strung necklace of talismanic charms.
Join them at stunning Hacienda Mosaico, an artist retreat in Puerto Vallarta. The setting is ideal, with inspiring tropical plants, mosaic walkways and delicious, fresh food prepared by the resident chef. The workshop takes place five days, but it will be at a very relaxed pace (so that it can serve as your vacation as well!) Two afternoons, participants are free to explore the city – shop, eat, walk on the beach, etc. (Stephanie will lead a trip to her favorite store of Dias De Los Muertos fiqures!) Hope you can join us. |
