This photo is from the One of A Kind show site for this spring -- the third year gold smithing students will be selling and displaying their work (and they'll be staffing the booth).

Does this mean you'll be in Toronto in early April?

(Sits up straight. Looks around hopefully)

Ah...well, I wasn't planning on it. The College Guy was asked weeks ago if he wanted to work on the show but declined as it's so close to year end and (as usual) he's obsessing about projects and papers that will be due. If that changes I could let you know. (Toronto...so close and yet so far...)

Aint it the truth.

Can't say as I blame him none, either.

Still, one of these days, that'd be nice. : )

Hi soz! The metal is a copper/silver mix called shibuchi; (I'm sure I've mangled the spelling).
