| | | Instructor Spotlight: Sherry Serafini | We asked 2017 instructor Sherry Serafini a few questions about her work. Here are her answers:
How do you keep your work space organized?
I don't. It's a disaster. I do try to keep trays with certain projects at least together, but it never fails: everything is bead soup. I'm a messy beader.
What are you most excited about in jewelry making right now?
Combining fibers and fabrics with the bead embroidery. I'm having a great time with ribbons and furs.
Where do you find your inspiration for jewelry?
Everywhere! I never know exactly when something is going to inspire. Usually though it comes from simply a focal bead or another artist's piece (like Maku or Robert Jennik) that gets me excited. I instantly get a vision in my head and just have to bead!
Share two tips for students to get the most out of your class.
1. Have no fear of the beads or of messing them up. Sometimes students come into class nervous about creating "bead art" thinking they can't do something great. If they take it one step at a time without envisioning the "big picture," it becomes less intimidating. 2. Read through instructions before diving in and wait for class to start before beginning. Sometimes I switch gears on starting points with a project to utilize time better. |
