I just looked at some of your work on your website. Very nice! I really like the bags and scarves. The jewellery is nice. I really like the pendants with it looks like glass. Very nice.
Havent heard from you for a bit so I was just wondering how are things? Right now everything is seeming to evolve around the olympic games coming to Vancouver this February. The city is already considering road closures starting as soon as November. There will also be no go zones which will keep the public from the dignitaries and athletes. The metals scene or specificly the jewellery scene in Vancouver and the surrounding area is still holding strong. It can be patchy meaning that different areas of the GVRD are doing better than others. GVRD means Greater Vancouver Regional District. I am quite busy in the studio workshop in Langley and it seems to be getting busier. I think that once you move here it will not take you long to break into the metals scene. There are two good groups in Vancouver that you might want to make contact with. I'll give you their websites. www.circle craft .net and www. craftcouncilbc.ca

I'm sorry I did not respond to your request earlier. I am always on this site as magadmin and not under my own page! When are you moving to Vancouver? I am sure we have members out there that could tell you about the metal scene in that part of the country.
I would love to see some of your work posted to the site, we are going to start featuring various artists who do interesting work and are always looking for fresh perspectives.
