Info-Image-Ideas, 2013-2014: Artist Research pt 2

Since she isn't actually a world-renowned jeweler, Amy Casher doesn't seem to have her own page on Wikipedia. Dang.

But what I did manage to discover is that her studio is based in the South End of Boston.

She's been to the Boston Arts Festival.

She had attended the book launch of "Size Matters: Hard Facts About Male Sexuality" (I haven't stopped giggling like a 12-year-old). This was back in 2008, and she was 34 then, so she should've been born around 1974.

She was at a thing called CRAFTOPIA in April, 2011.

She does have a Facebook page for her shop, which gives updates of where she'll be selling jewelry.

Her Bio on her website states the following:

I created Amy Casher Designs after making jewelry as a hobby for over 15 years. It all started one year at an arts-focused summer camp (Buck's Rock), where I wielded my first saw, hammer, and jeweler's torch and officially - in my mind, anyway - became a silversmith. I can still remember feeling so proud to be able to wear and gift my handmade treasures.
I've since taken jewelry classes and workshops in just about every town I've lived in, while pursuing academic degrees, living and traveling on several continents, and working at different organizations in the corporate and non-profit worlds. With all the twists and turns in my life, there has always been one constant: making jewelry.

Much of the information I can find about her is vague and fleeting. If need be, I could send her an email and be all super-professional art student-interviewer-like and ask her a whole bunch of questions. I suppose that depends on how deep we're supposed to go with this assignment.

As far as I can tell, she's just a regular person who loves to make jewelry, and decided that she could make half of a living off of it. (The other half is being a management consultant.) She's a very current artist, going to different craft fairs and open markets in Boston to sell her work.

But seriously. Her work is gorgeous.
