The "Skin, Skeleton, Soul" project from second semester Intro. to Jewelry with Lola Brooks is the only piece I have photographed from Sophomore year. I still like these pieces and it was my first project working to combine felted wool and metal, therefore I consider this piece to be kind of a "jump-off point" project.
