My Ten Chain Callenge

I'm working on making chains. Ten of them.  I was inspired to this challenge after taking Amy Tavern's workshop called "Innovating the Chain." I learned a lot. Mostly I was reminded in my interest in process, my love of multiples, and the process of learning through repetition.  She suggested when we try something new, we try it more than once, perhaps ten times and we may discover something.  Maybe something we like, maybe what is not to like.  I really took this to heart, and I realized that making ten chains would be a great project for me.  It gives me a goal, and a boundary in which to play and explore ideas. 

My criteria:

• Make ten chains
• out of aluminum sheet metal
• without planning them all in advance
• and instead, let one lead to the next
• but, sketch ideas in my notebook along the way.
• Don't think about selling them.
• They are sketches.
