Hello all you wondrous people,

    I would be grateful for your recommendations for people, galleries,
    suppliers, concerned with jewelry and fine metalwork generally  in
    Phoenix and Tucson where my wife and I will be visiting in April. 
    She'll be busy at painting school. I've got a week or two to just
    poke around. 

    I am not usually excited by terribly precious things like gold,
    diamonds, platinum conventional jewelry. (Though I  admire good
    craftsmanship in any form)  Nor very excited by bronze cowboy and
    indian sculpture, But I do love (forgive me) "art" metalwork and
    jewelry, silver, copper, brass, iron,  natural textures and objects
    - imaginative and inspiring examples thereof.  Jewelry, sculpture,
    functional objects, any scale acceptable.  I hope that is a vague
    enough description of my tastes to produce a wide range of
    responses. 

    I guess another way of putting it is - What can I see there which
    I'd be sorry to learn that I had missed if you didn't tell me about
    it?  Any exciting open working studios or metal work schools?
    Museums, galleries, folks who like to kibbitz? 

    And while we're at this - any good friendly B & B' s in Tucson?  $
    or even $$  OK,  but definitely not $$$$! 

Thanks Thanks Thanks
Marty in Victoria, usually but not always.
