What a superb teacher he is and fantastic human being.
I had 2 incredible weeks with Rhonda Coryell learning to work with Argentium Silver.
I made my daughter Lily an nice necklace with torch enamling, Myself a wedding ring fused from 2 rings into one. I learned chain making and gold onto Argentium fusing. Rhonda is a great teacher and works very hard to teach lessons that took her years to develop.
By recommendation of Henry Williams of ZBJW I attended JCK in Las Vegas. This show is huge and designed as a source for Jewelers to acquire everything imaginable to make jewelry. It was a bit overwhelming to say the least.
I've been working on this necklace for about 4 years.
Finally got some core knowledge to see the base form correctly the sculpt in ZBrush.
Through my mentor Tomas Wittlebach of ZBrush Jewelry Workshop I was able to get this cast by Rio Grande.
The photo's don't do it justice.
I added World Peace and hunger issues on the back side to keep it from being boring.
It says: "I'M SO HUNGRY I CAN EAT A HUMAN!"
