LORRENE BAUM DAVIS - CHANNEL SETTING
FEB 26, 2011
Classically trained as a goldsmith at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco, award winning artist, Lorrene J. Baum-Davis has been creating one-of-a-kind art jewelry since 1985. She owned New Beginnings Gallery of Jewelry and Fine Art with her husband, Philip, in El Dorado Hills, California, for eleven years.
In 2000, they retired and closed the gallery. She then became a full time jewelry designer, teacher and graphic artist.
In the 1990's, Baum-Davis fell in love with the polymers and metal clays and immersed herself in these mediums and eventually began teaching metal clay and polymer clay artistic skills.
She teaches monthly workshops in the Sierra Foothills Studio in Placerville, California. She travels to teach both the metal clay and polymer clay two day workshops, and we just managed to snag her during a whirlwind trip to the East Coast to give students a day-long sneak peak at her brand-new channel setting technique!
She is one of nine Master Instructors in Art Clay Silver (USA), and teaches Certification workshops to future Level I and Senior Instructors. Her art and techniques have been featured in newspapers and magazines.
