Ready for the Summer Games with some New Art Jewelry Pieces

We delivered our jewelry last Thursday for the Nightly Arts Festival and sale at the Kamloops Western Canada Summer Games.  There are 29 local artists represented with several demonstrations each evening.  I demoed my millefiori and bead making last night and had a fun time.

This is a spliced cane I made during my demo in a favorite color combination of grape (#10-4) and lagoon (#8-3).    I plan to use this cane to make some sculpted floral buttons, shawl pins and rings...

Our jewelry inventory was a little depleted after selling at the Shuswap Lake Festival of the Arts so we made some new pieces just for this show.  These are an amalgamation of several Mokume Gane techniques in some bright summer colors.

2011 Western Canada Summer Games - Nightly Arts Festival

This August, Kamloops will be hosting the 2011 Western Canada Summer Games and we are excited to be a part of this great event!  The Kamloops Art Council is heading up a Nightly Arts Festival which will take place at the Heritage House at Riverside Park each evening (August 6-13) from 4:00 to 8:00 pm.

As a member of the Kamloops Art Council, a selection of our jewelry will be for sale at the Heritage House.  Both Dave and I will be there helping out on the Sunday (7th) evening so if you are in the area, please stop in to say hi.  I will be demoing (weather permitting) my millefiori canes and bead making that same evening from 6:00-8:00 pm.
