Here is an update of some stuff I've done recently at Queensland College of Art. In my jewellery making class I learned how to solder, use a jeweller's saw, and polish.
That is what I did... I don't know what it is but I like it. A little copper trinket.
In painting class today we started off by doing figure studies with acrylic paint
