Featured Artist for December is Akemi Walker

Jewelry designer, Akemi Walker, will be at Penn Cove Gallery on Sunday, December 30, 2018, from 10- 5pm to demonstrate her work and methods. Akemi’s special love is Art Clay Silver, a mixture of fine silver powder and organic material which comes as a form of clay. When fired, the organic material burns off and the silver fuses to become fine silver sculptured pieces. She uses freshwater pearls, semiprecious stones and Baltic amber with sterling silver in her designs. Living on Whidbey Island, her sculptured fine silver pieces are inspired by the incredible nature that surrounds her.
