This really is the funnest bit of my whole business. It's all about extending time in the zone... man. My addiction to 'Zone time' is why I occasionally act a little crazy, forget to eat, smoke a little too much and generally get obsessive over the minutia of clasps, findings, finish and resolution of designs. The resolution of jewellery is more complicated than most people realise. To make a necklace hang right, at the right length with the correct balance and the right proportions doesn't just happen over night people!<br />

Hi everyone, I am at Gate today making all my jewellery components for next weekend. I like my desk at this stage, it is a kind of organised chaos of colour. This is the good bit where I put my superior design skills to the test (under the pump as usual) and come up with something brilliant and inspired. That's the plan anyway. Before I extrude brilliance through the proverbial sphincter of creation, there will be without a doubt bleeding fingers, fatigue, tears, self doubt, throwing in of the towel, dancing, singing and of course coffee abuse. I will get there though. I always do.Katrina Freenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03594938806304417649noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2211405529880207539.post-42555485358034502012-11-01T00:05:00.001-07:002012-11-01T00:05:33.070-07:00Katrina Freene Jewellery: Bowebird Bazaar Design Market next weekend<a href="http://katrinafreene.blogspot.com/2012/11/bowebird-bazaar-design-market-next.html?spref=bl">Katrina Freene Jewellery: Bowebird Bazaar Design Market next weekend</a>: Come and visit me at the best market in Australia next weekend on November the 9th - 11th .Katrina Freenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03594938806304417649noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2211405529880207539.post-66384618968144292202012-11-01T00:00:00.001-07:002012-11-01T00:00:49.910-07:00Bowebird Bazaar Design Market next weekendCome and visit me at the best market in Australia next weekend on November the 9th - 11th .<br />

I had a great Fringe day today with my mud mates... Ceramicists Tracey Rosser, Alison, Ang, and rose. We started at Gate 8 and then went into town to Gluttony where they have the best burgers ever. We then went to the garden, Urban Cow studio and that tea joint T2 on Rundle street. Pretty good day all round. Check out Anges blog to see some photos.

Through my teaching, writing and consultancy practices, I got more and more interested in how new design approaches are helping large organizations deal with complex issues. I saw product-driven companies work to make the transition to a more service-dominant logic. I saw technology-centered companies aspiring to become more human-centered, with technology as enabler. And I saw large companies struggle with the agility and entrepreneurial spirit that is required for relevant innovation."<br /><a href="http://http://mocoloco.com/fresh2/2012/03/01/video-design-the-new-business.php">http://mocoloco.com</a>Katrina Freenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03594938806304417649noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2211405529880207539.post-89174772299067802722012-02-23T21:01:00.004-08:002012-02-23T21:10:10.394-08:00Istanbul Spice Market<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS_u_KvaJ_HEdP50KiUthL_7ekLUX9lUhmTHdrYnolDPSMvDUfXIYJetHQFp9ReuoEelWrOhddNUXSv3HDeAdQOJ-Ulr6JNsQ1F4jscGtEqabU7NIknpazXh2S4QSnR19OKmn_935yaIg/s1600/IMG_3552.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS_u_KvaJ_HEdP50KiUthL_7ekLUX9lUhmTHdrYnolDPSMvDUfXIYJetHQFp9ReuoEelWrOhddNUXSv3HDeAdQOJ-Ulr6JNsQ1F4jscGtEqabU7NIknpazXh2S4QSnR19OKmn_935yaIg/s400/IMG_3552.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712564815189630626" /></a><br />Where do you find Turkish spices in Adelaide?<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5tpPwJyiOmAV6lpdlSEc7xsWAdXHah7_2X3rGr7zNTR3zZnQ_HZkWZIPtbIBJJ3S-Hvg3I84J9YpP64iV25Cw9rIzYf_Nr5axiBkapZsf902HOehxj00MQW2qsS2vG2c4MT1FxceHlKg/s1600/IMG_3546.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5tpPwJyiOmAV6lpdlSEc7xsWAdXHah7_2X3rGr7zNTR3zZnQ_HZkWZIPtbIBJJ3S-Hvg3I84J9YpP64iV25Cw9rIzYf_Nr5axiBkapZsf902HOehxj00MQW2qsS2vG2c4MT1FxceHlKg/s400/IMG_3546.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712564579755498594" /></a><br />Very close to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is the Spice Market. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAcLiZJ3DfFNdvH3DrYvzh3WzpbsEhK9Wl3Vy9uO0iwZ18nWNPmHvs6FPHYd3M-2jN6gNHSOAs0NhACHulbHKpCSQBbSpl6s57oGSFcQg204IGjxFCfFn3jil9QUK26-LH1FqOdMzbJRw/s1600/IMG_3548.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAcLiZJ3DfFNdvH3DrYvzh3WzpbsEhK9Wl3Vy9uO0iwZ18nWNPmHvs6FPHYd3M-2jN6gNHSOAs0NhACHulbHKpCSQBbSpl6s57oGSFcQg204IGjxFCfFn3jil9QUK26-LH1FqOdMzbJRw/s400/IMG_3548.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712564285688483666" /></a><br />The Spice Market is an incredible place filled with amazing aromas and charismatic stall vendors vying for your business<br />Mmmmm..... sweet meats!

It was important to Dan that the ring be light weight, strong and comfortable. It has been years since Dan wore a ring due to the nature of his work. Cinematographers work with their hands all day long and in Dan's own words "I need the hardest metal in the world". That would be titanium.<br />The titanium ring shank is slightly tapered for comfort and the above image shows the materials I began with to make the ring, a titanium shank and the ingot of silver to be in-layed at a later stage...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCL3NHTsWboaphwV7t1SykPLs7-rUyH-ATbp5yz5a12VMbSNHhyphenhyphenpFTPnK-p3wTFEhWIIq8JrCiUqnUBidwwiCBJj9yF5aQP3xdvDyomyuSXMlpqIBvVeLbs1eE-dF0fndI-_JkGXYpBrg/s1600/IMG_0364_web.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCL3NHTsWboaphwV7t1SykPLs7-rUyH-ATbp5yz5a12VMbSNHhyphenhyphenpFTPnK-p3wTFEhWIIq8JrCiUqnUBidwwiCBJj9yF5aQP3xdvDyomyuSXMlpqIBvVeLbs1eE-dF0fndI-_JkGXYpBrg/s400/IMG_0364_web.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703907881968225362" border="0" /></a>Here is my bench.

In Melbourne at the same time last night a lecture was being held at RMIT as a fundraiser for the RMIT Gold & Silversmithing 2011 graduate exhibition. Four internationally acclaimed luminaries of the jewellery world, goldsmith Robert Baines, artist and curator Susan Cohn, jeweller Benjamin Lignel, and art historian and curator Damian Skinner spoke on the topic, ‘The contemporary jewellery movement is more alive than dead’.
