Gold

It seems like it's been ages since I've posted here. Unfortunately it is because I haven't been able to do a lot in terms of jewelry-making these days. I've been tied up training for a half marathon and traveling quite a bit. However, it looks like things are finally calming down and in 2 weeks I am taking a private lesson on how to work with gold. The goal is to create 4 rings, one of which will have a stone set on an open-backed bezel. I'm really looking forward to it. Depending on how the lesson goes (and how much of a dent in my pocket the gold makes), I may try to incorporate a little gold into my next few pieces...
