December 12, 2008

Today I went to check on my work at the gallery, and some lousy person stole my butterfly jasper ring.

Grumbly Ramblings

November 25, 2008

I finished a beautiful pendant that I had been working on in between some production pieces. It was one of those pieces that brought excitement at every new stage. * Well, I finished everything and all was well. Then I went to set the giant plume jasper in the bezel. I gave the bezel a […]

The JEMKohl memorial fishing tournament is a day that Mike sets aside each year to go fishing in remembrance of his mother.
