[Robyn Hawk]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

    I am VERY excited to announce my latest blog, Jewelry and Gem
    Artisans! 

    This is a little different than what I have been doing...I want to
    use this space to talk to people who are doing something that I want
    to learn to do, people who have inspired me and my love of the
    Jewelry Arts! 

    You can see the premiere interview...Michael David Sturlin - Crochet
    Gold - at: http://jewelrygemartisans.blogspot.com

    So - this is going to have an interview format with two static
    features - Top Ten References & Workshop Info. I really feel that
    once I have been introduced to an artist, I like to know the
    reference material they use and where I can learn to develop new
    techniques to enhance my own work. 

    If there are specific questions that you would like to see me add to
    the questionnaire I send out please feel free to leave comments or
    email me privately. Your input matters!!!!! 

    For those of you who don't know my background I had a beaded jewelry
    business 20 years ago when the "Bohemian" look was called the "Gypsy"
    look! I went from there to a career in fundraising for various non-
    profits, all the while still collecting, drooling and, yes, fondling
    gems! I am now a Free-Lance PR and Marketing Professional which has
    afforded me the freedom to return to my first love! I am currently
    taking Jewelry Design and Lapidary classes at Venice Adult School (no
    silly not Venice, Italy - Venice, CA) and working on my Graduate
    Gemologist Certification from GIA (Gemological Institute of America).
    You may know me from my "Fly on the Wall" pieces from the 2007 Tucson
    Gem Show...you can view them at:
