Marlene is a jeweler I've known for atleast 10 years. This type of ring, made of tin, was something she was making and teaching when I first met her.				She wears many hats, and is one of the busiest people I know. Later her work in tin used alot of multiple componets, combined with steel.

These are new pieces inspired by her new residence in Columbia NC. Marlene makes studio art jewelry, she teaches, is in numerous galleries and invitational shows, works for the Society of North American Goldsmiths, and is most recently the Executive Director of Pocosin Art Center.

Marlene is a classy lady, always pleasant and fun to be around. Check out her website, as well as all the classes and workshops she hosts at Pocosin, Every so often she comes to Raleigh and teaches a workshop at Pullen, The next one we are hoping for is locket making.
