In this class we will expand and fine tune the skills learned in Jewelry I, and explore a wider range of processes, time-saving tools and resources. Students will be encouraged to become more independent artisans, further develop their ideas and learn to critique their own work.

Developing greater confidence with complex fabrication, basic stone setting, and challenging soldering situations will be the emphasized so that students can look forward to participating in the wide range of workshops and advanced classes at Metalwerx.

Students will be asked to work out design solutions and read various technical articles outside of class so that class time can be devoted to working on projects. Contributing to the spirit of a safe and cooperative studio environment will also be stressed.

This class is 6 sessions long. Each session is 4 hours. If a make-up class is necessary, it will be held on August 18, 2008
