Vera's Iron and Vine, my retail store, opened in 2018, and in 2020, I began renovating a former fiddlehead cannery in Wilton, Maine, transforming it into my creative space, now called Belle Creative arts. Here, I craft and assemble mixed media, found object art, refined artisan jewelry, pottery, and one-of-a-kind pieces. You’ll often find me in my overalls, happily chatting with anyone who comes to visit!

About the event
You will learn to anneal, shape & forge copper.
Fold forming is a technique discovered by Charles lewtin Brain and is one of the most beautiful ways to sculpt metal into organic, flowing shapes giving you the ability to transform flat metal into three dimensional shapes that have a natural, graceful quality to them. The finished pieces are lightweight, which makes them easy to make into jewelry to wear. And you don’t need a lot of tools to create beautiful jewelry.
You’ll learn basic techniques & then you can explore different shapes.
