Susan Lenart talks with Nicole Ringgold

Nicole is an amazing artist and we spotlight her work in Susan's new book: Intentional Metalsmithing.

Her bio from Intentional Metalsmithing:
"My work is entirely hand fabricated and is deeply inspired by nature. I am a silversmith living in Winthrop, situated in the North Cascade mountains in Washington state. I am an outdoor enthusiast, gardener, wife and mother, farmer, and world wanderer. Throughout the year I teach master silversmithing workshops in my studio and around the globe.
My botanical jewelry is hand-fabricated. I start with silver sheets and wire. I saw, solder, file, texture, form, oxidize and polish every piece. My intention is not to replicate the plants, but to recreate them with silver with as much detail as possible. My goal with every piece is to make the metal appear alive. When not in my studio, you can find me in the mountains, with my family and chocolate
lab, tilling soil in my garden, or dreaming up our next foreign excursion."
