Artemis Lampwork Lyn Richards creates lampwork beads with the goal of bringing joy and delight to her friends and customers with every piece she makes. Though her style is eclectic, she's found her comfort zone in bright cheery pieces, full of color and movement, as well as in earthy organic beads, full of detail and depth. Reveling in her time at the torch, she also creates custom Twisties and Cane for other lampworkers.  In addition to lampwork, her jewelry is based on her own vision, where she sees the piece in her head, goes to the torch to bring the beads to life, then extends the piece into its jewelry form. She's happy to take custom orders! She's also on Etsy!

Jinglers Jewelry Jinglers Jewelrytm is created by sisters Robin Aronson and April Guittar. With a desire to create jewelry that is colorful and fun to wear, they chose anodized aluminum as their primary medium. Utilizing accents such as glass, beads, enamels and other metals, their jewelry is unique, easy to spot, and sometimes downright crazy. Robin has a background in metal fabrication, glass fusing and polymer clay. She holds a senior certification in Art Clay Silver, a Level II Certification in PMC (Precious Metal Clay) and teaches frequent classes in the Jacksonville, Florida area. She recently returned to the Jacksonville area after spending 7 (cold) years in Minnesota. April has a graphic arts background and has worked as both a graphic artist and an art teacher in the Jacksonville public school system. Her primary concentrations were in oil and acrylic painting and pencil drawings.

Brown Dragonfly Studios Since the age of 12, Cathy Brown has wanted to do metal work, but back then a girl in a metal shop class was not the norm and she was directed to take a music class instead. That passion was set aside for a more practical life, but for years, she has wondered what she could have done art-wise and dreamed of setting up something for all artists, a forum or gallery.  Now working with copper enameling, she has found her joy and hopes to expand into other metals and creating wonderful free-standing metal pieces that will decorate homes, offices, and galleries around the world. Here are her first steps!
