Daniel Porter Stevens – Metal Smith
http://www.danielporterstevens.com/
I had recently read an article showcasing the work of Daniel Porter Stevens. The reviewers were talking about his sense of “line”.
“Line” is an important jewelry design element — one of the most important things the designer needs to control.
Line establishes a “silhouette” — it delineates a part of the body above it and below it.
The curvature or straightness of the line evokes a wide range of feelings and emotions on the part of the viewer.
Sometimes the line is like an arrow pointing the viewer’s attention to one place over another.
Lines can be blurry or sharp.
Lines can be rigid, or the designer can somehow “break” the line.
Lines are important.
Visit Daniel’s website and look at his slide-shows of his jewelry.

This wasn’t a published article. It was one shared with at a jewelry association. I don’t have a physical copy.
