I took a class in enameling. Karin Bremer, an Oneonta region jeweler with mad design and technological skills, announced a one-day enameling workshop. I was eager to attend because although I'd done plenty of enameling through high school and when I taught craft courses at Salem High School, I couldn't make enameling with a torch instead of in a kiln, work. Was I forgetting some important step? Karin was a wonderful teacher and such a generous person, to have offered such a course to all of us. And to avail her studio, tools and supplies to the workshop participants. It was a fun and rewarding day. And Naturally, I came back to my home studio and pulled out the enamels that had been taunting and perplexing me--and I made some successful (if not exactly inspired) enameled pieces. A few of them are in the photos in this post, along with some of my other new work. Find my work on Etsy at https://www.etsy.com/ suzyfrisbee and at Good Cheap Foods in Delhi, NY.

Stagecoach Run 2024

Yes! The Stagecoach Run Artists' Studio Tour begins on July 6th, and although it's designed to be a "run" from studio to studio, I will be setting up my display in Franklin at the Railroad Museum. Why? Not because my studio is too messy (but it is) but because Stagecoach veterans warned me that it's too remote. Remote from the Franklin-Treadwell locus point, that is. This year, I'm taking their word and experiences as fact, and seeing what will happen at the Railroad Museum, and in their barn.

Sterling silver pendants. The top photo has a a bezel-set beautiful stone, and I cannot remember the name of the stone nor find it in reference material. The bottom pendant features a stone I picked up in the shallow edge of the Delaware River, in Delhi.
