RO BRUHN I ‘m a graphic designer but gave up full time work last Christmas to concentrate on my art and teaching. My passion is working with fabrics and papers, creating jewellery and painting in acrylic and pastels. I’ve exhibited in four exhibitions showing my paintings, jewellery, journals and mosaics. My jewellery is regulary in Antipodes Gallery in Sorrento and Touchstone Gallery in Olinda. I’ve had my work published in America’s Belle Amoire Jewellery Magazine, Australian Get Creative, Australian Beader magazine and later in the year one of my journals will be featured in Cloth Paper Scissors. I teach workshops on a regular basis and have been lucky enough to teach with overseas tutors at retreats
here in Australia.

Maha Ghobrial Maha taught painting and mixed media for many years, until she "stumbled" into jewellery making by chance late in 1997 while attending a craft show, coming across this "cool" new product called Silver Clay. From that very first "make it & take it" half hour introduction workshop she was hooked, attending every possible class & workshop going before attendeding one of the very first metal clay certification classes in Australia in 2002, and completing a Advanced Diploma in Engineering-Jewellery @ NMIT 2011 Maha continued to learn all aspects of jewellery from National & international renowned Australian and international artists, with the skills learnt in traditional metal smithing along with metal clay, glass, acrylic, resin and enamels has given Maha great flexibility when creating her jewellery and these are the skills that she is able to pass on to her students. Maha teaches regular metal clay classes and other sorts of jewellery making @ her studio in Melbourne south eastern suburbs. Maha exhibited her work @ Flinder's Gallery and in 2009 she was invited to exhibit at the prestigious "For the Love of Egypt Festival". Maha is a member of the PMC Guild and a founding member of the Melbourne Chapter. She is also a very proud member of "The Chain Gang", a group born around the jewellery benches in Maggie's studio and now a successful group of four jewellery artists running a joint jewellery business.
