The Ring A Day (RAD) project is the little project that grew to international status…<\/span><\/p>\n

“Jewelry Designer. Graphic Designer. Appreciator of modern design.<\/span>
For the year 2010, I have given myself the challenge to create a ring every day. They can be made out of anything. The only restriction is that I must make one ring every day for 365 days. I will be posting all of my rings here. <\/span>
Several other artists have joined me in this challenge. You can see their work here: http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/groups\/rad2010\/” …from the blog of Nina Dinoff<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/span>
…and so it began – a few at the start that soon grew to hundreds of jewelry artisans committed to designing and fabricating a “Ring A Day”!<\/span>

<\/span>
While there will always be the Flickr group<\/a> with photos of every piece submitted…the little Lark tome is a handy at home or in the classroom reminder of the exercise.<\/span>

<\/span>
Brilliantly standing in its jewel toned red cover – Marthe LeVan has once again curated a collection that gives the novice an idea of the entirety of the project. Sampling rings of every material be it animal, vegetable, mineral or metal and all things in between.<\/span><\/p>\n

“ What started as a small adventure, day by day, grew to become an incredible and amazing experience. Also, this project brought <\/span>my pieces<\/a>, along with many other participants, to a <\/span>United States Exhibition<\/a> and it has been published by <\/span>Lark Books<\/a> in this fantastic book. Thank you all!” <\/span><\/span>…from the 18kt blog by Marta Sanchez<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The project started with the agreement <\/span>to \u201cmake a ring a day no matter where you are, what materials are at your disposal, or how much time you have available\u201d and post a photograph of it to Flickr. The project was designed to encourage people to find beauty, art, and jewelry everywhere. Their imaginative rings showcase a range of unusual things, from a pencil sharpener to a tiny baby doll to an egg, and even poodle hair! Comments and quotes from the artists themselves provide plenty of insight into the work.<\/span>

<\/span>
…and so the project grew from a Flickr Group to international Art exhibitions – including the Annual Conference of the prestigious Society of North American Goldsmiths.<\/span><\/p>\n
