Have you seen a moon ring? When you see it, people say it will rain tomorrow. My work here has an image of a moon ring, surrounded by a lot of interests and pieces of enthusiasm.
You won't have a rain tomorrow, but you'll have some fun stuff tomorrow.
Moon crystal will steer away bad spirits. Hope it'll protect you from evil things.]]>Moon Charmhttp://junyjune.exblog.jp/2054951/2005-06-28T12:13:00+09:002007-08-31T01:14:26+09:002005-06-28T12:14:10+09:00junyjuneSilver Clay + China
We had some prospectives coming to visit my trial lessons.
They made a cool charm top for their chokers.
It seemed they enjoyed the class. They'll be my students from July!
体験レッスンに数名ご参加いただきました。素敵なチャームを作ってました。
どうやら楽しんでいただけた様です。7月からどうぞよろしく!]]>"L"http://junyjune.exblog.jp/2024364/2005-06-17T06:27:00+09:002007-08-31T01:14:52+09:002005-06-17T06:28:24+09:00junyjuneArt Clay Silver Only
L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore can
Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart and please don't break it
Love was made for me and you

This one is creaetd with Art Clay Silver. I made "L" letter for
the shop who asked me to have a class there.

This pendant top is basically made with Art Clay Silver and brass wire.
After buring brass parts in the clay, dry it up, shape it, then bake it.
This one needs a special effort on filing and finishing.
Brass is harder than silver, but we need to file them well after baking.
That way, we can see flat and bold line on its surface.
このペンダント・トップは純銀粘土(アートクレイシルバー)と真鍮線で作られてます。
真鍮を粘土に埋めた後乾燥して成型、焼成します。
焼成後のやすり掛けと仕上げがとても大変です。
何しろ真鍮は銀よりも硬いですし埋まっているものを焼成後硬くなってからやする事で
表面が平らで太い線を出す事ができるのです。
まぁ、慣れないければマメの一つや二つ…(笑w]]>Too much to sayhttp://junyjune.exblog.jp/2008254/2005-06-10T08:38:00+09:002007-08-31T01:19:44+09:002005-06-10T08:37:47+09:00junyjuneSilver Clay + Premo!
This work needed a couple of processes.
First, make silver parts by using Slow-dry Art Clay Silver.
Next, make beads and flower pattern by using solid color premo.
Finally, combine premo and silver parts.
Premo is a new type clay. We can use home-oven to bake it at 130F for 30 min.(and cool it down).
Each color is a solid, and we can mix two or three colors to make a new original color as needed.
Actually, I had single pink and also mixed pink for this artwork.
This is very fun material to use.
プレモは新しいタイプの粘土です。 家庭用のオーブンで130℃で30分焼き作ります(その後冷まします)
各色は混じりけのない色ですが、2-3色を混ぜて新しい色を必要に応じて作る事ができます。
ちなみに私の作品にも単色(元のプレモの色・濃い方)のピンクと混ぜて作ったピンク(淡い色)が使われてます。
プレモは面白い素材です。]]>"Ryo" 涼http://junyjune.exblog.jp/2005771/2005-06-09T12:08:00+09:002007-08-31T01:21:07+09:002005-06-09T12:07:51+09:00junyjuneSilver Clay + China
I put two different dye color over the china before putting silver paste and a silver-clay bail. Dye colors I used are "pearl" and "yellowishgreen."
Since I baked twice, the colors became a bit dull.
I will give this pendant top to my mom for this year's B-day coming soon!
白磁にペーストタイプや銀粘土のバチカンをつける前に、2つの塗料を塗っています。
塗料を塗って焼いた後に粘土を焼成しているので塗料の色がちょっと渋めに出来上がるように
なっています。
このペンダントトップは今年の我が母上の誕生日にプレゼントされます。]]>THE FIRST'shttp://junyjune.exblog.jp/2002024/2005-06-08T00:37:00+09:002007-08-31T01:24:42+09:002005-06-08T00:37:40+09:00junyjuneArt Clay Silver Only
These are rings I made while I was taking lessons, but mostly my original designs. The one with a small cross is my first ring I made.
Everytime I see or wear this ring, I can see how far I come.
At the same time, it reminds me that I should not be arrogant anytime.
So, the work itself is really poor finish, but I think this ring means a lot to me.
The flower's one uses burnable beads.
The ring with a turquoise is my first ring with stone setting.
The one with gold is my first work, using some gold clay.
The one with lines is my first work to create it in a half-round form.
The one shaped is the first one I tried to make a solid but shaped method.
The image of the photograph is "reunion."
(Don't you think every ring is looking at you?)
I actually made this based on a textbook when I was taking advanced classes. This tie-tack is sold when I had a seasonal shop opened at one of department stores in Takasaki, early 2005. The center natural stone is an oval shaped malachite. Wishing to steer away all evils for the person who wears it. Believe it or not....:-)
またその話は今度!]]>A Happy New Yearhttp://junyjune.exblog.jp/1996735/2005-06-06T08:58:00+09:002007-08-31T01:28:27+09:002005-06-06T08:58:34+09:00junyjuneArt Clay Silver Only
I used this photo for my new year card 2005.
These parts were created by sylinge-type Art Clay Silver.
Wishing a new year for everyone to be filled with a lot of "love" and
also wishing their wish to come true(wish upon stars???).
I didn't explain it on the postcard since it is a bit too much to say. :-)
]]>Love & Peacehttp://junyjune.exblog.jp/1993652/2005-06-05T08:02:00+09:002007-08-31T01:32:05+09:002005-06-05T08:02:17+09:00junyjuneSilver Clay + China
This is one of my favorite and the first work with China.
I used slow-dry Art Clay Silver, pure silver paste and China oval part.
Unfortunately, this pendant top is now ruined and cannot be fixed.
Hope I can fix it. I'm still trying, but China's surface layer coat has been removed completely when the surface silver coat was removed.
To fix this pendant top, China's surface layer coat needs to be fixed first.
I used some chemical coat before reputting silver paste, but it didn't work
at all.
O-well...., this accident will be some homework for me to do for my personal skill improvement!
This is the pendant top which I'll use to teach kids and their parents during this summer vacation!!
It has a fish swimming in ocean!! Hope people will come....

The ring image is the feeling of thanksfulness toward people who showed us the importance of giving hands when people needs----during all these disaster survivals which happened all over the world these years. It is just hard to express in a word or two, but we've got many messages from them.
The words written on ring are "thanks" in different languages.
The top images human love and a hope found in waves of tragedy.
仕上がりがイマイチではあるのですが(あまり納得いかなかった)、
『ありがとう』というタイトルの作品です。
2004年は天災で多くの人達が被害に遭われました。それらの人々が大変な
生活をしながらも多くの大切な事をメディアを通して教えてくれました。
モチーフは、リングに色々な国の言葉でありがとうという言葉が書かれており、
トップは惨事の中からでさえ生まれた思いやりの心と希望をイメージしてます。]]>junyjune Silverhttp://junyjune.exblog.jp/235148/2005-06-02T23:11:00+09:002007-08-31T01:38:33+09:002004-05-05T23:11:10+09:00junyjuneArt Clay Silver Only
I will start to use this blog for uploading my work little by little.
Otherwise, I won't push myself working harder anyway, though.
All jewelry designs are copyrighted. Appreciate your understanding.
Hope you'll enjoy to watch them.
These rose cross and ring are displayed @NHK Culture Center, Kawagoe school. All my students love them.
