kevin (the professor) Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I am impressed by your work. Especially the fact that you do not use powders. I do not know why exactly, but I do not have the same level of respect for powedered mosaic as I do for the "old" ways. Beautiful work, thank you for sharing.

demid Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 From my mosaic Damascus steel, I do exclusive jewelry, such as bracelets. Used only forge - the hearth welding. Two bracelets from the wild and crankshaft Damascus. The third is called: "Flowers on the inside. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beth Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 vladimir your work is in another orbit!! but i know WHY when i read the way you talk about the work- i can hear how creatively happy you are, and that you are on a journey with the work that you really love - and we can all benefit from hearing about that - your creative thinking/process as well as your technical skill, although when you master something like you have, the two become one, and even more than the sum of the parts. the close ups look like microscopic patterns in nature, tiny set jewels with beautiful natural symmetry, it must be very exciting to see your idea emerge each time.. very compulsive!! i shake your hand from england! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The magnificent speech on you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Great work! Is this your own shop or do you work for someone? If your own shop do you have others that work for you? How's business? What is the majority of work that you do? Hope you don't mind all of the questions. Interesting to see how others make a living and produce work.
