Wish I got a video of this hammer in action, but my student last week made a tiny hammer attached to a ring because... Art? Art! . . . . . #hammering #hammerring #bangbang #maxwellssilverhammer #sterling #sterlingsilver #art #metalart #wearableart #studentart #trevortwistart #artteachersofinstagram

Making gauntlets has been a surprisingly popular project idea for the students this summer. Maybe there is some Avengers influence there? Anyone else want an Infinity Gauntlet? This student came back and improved on one he made last year so I think he's a bit more original. He made a slew of other awesomely creative things as well that I'll post more on later. Hope y'all are enjoying these student-work posts! . . . . . #jewelry #jewelryfabrication #gauntlet #handarmor #6thgrader #studentart #jewelryteacher

Repost from @stilldreamfestival . . What a great weekend! I always love the vibes at Stilldream Art and Music Festival but was worried this year about the change of venue. No more Belden? No more Feather River? Turns out, the new spot was awesome. Thanks to @gamma_music for putting on a great show, @yesseefreesoul for this rad stage, and @freerolando for curating a badass art lineup. 🖖🙏 . . . . . #musicfestival #artfestival #livepainting #livepainter #trevortwistlivepainting #visualprojection #projectionmapping #art

You can always tell it's #studentmade in my feed thanks to the red background. This student piece is Sterling silver with a copper bezel and a wooden bead. Turned out pretty cool! . . . . . #studentmade #ring #sterlingsilver #summercamp #teachemyoung

FMA (future metalsmiths of america) have been at it again all week, now I have more fun work to post by them. Hooray! Teach 'em young . . . . . #teachemyoung #teachyourchildrenwell #futuremetalsmiths #soldering #metalprojects #metal #metalart #cat #studentmade

Dang between the sculpture, teaching, and staring longingly at all your beautiful faces I almost forgot that I'm gonna be back at still dream this coming weekend, live painting, selling some of my handmade works and jewelry and taking in the vibes with some of my favorite people on the planet. This is one of my absolute favorite events, put on by the same crew that we're running these gatherings when I was a wee lad! I sincerely hope to see you there. 🖖 . . . . . #stilldream #livepainting #trevortwistlivepainting #trevortwistart #festival #gathering #edm #liveart #music #musicfestival #northerncalifornia #dancing #wackadoodle #letsgoofoff #makeartalldamnday #makelifeyourart #stilldreamin #vibepatrol

Bare Heart build featuring @eidmaw . Thanks again friends! @jccuz77 @king_hippo20 @maffwww @dicapriaart ! Couldn't make the amazing things without y'all! Not to mention the help from @burningman and @deka_fabrication who donated the structural lumber for this piece from their scraps! I'm in awe about all the support I've received on this project, and it's not even done yet! 💜🙏 . . . . . #bareheart #bareheart2018 #bareheartsculpture #trevortwistart #trevortwistsculpture #constructivist #sculpture #grateful #art #burningman #burningmanart #driftwood

Another student piece from last week. This student has come to metalsmithing camp 4 consecutive Summers and is getting pretty good too! She made this in one day of class. 😵😁👍 . . . . . #studentart #metalart #metalsmithing #summercamp #owl #stars #moon #mobile

One of my students,who has been in my summer camp a handful of times now, made this rad stuff last week. Sterling silver ring with a bezel set Amber and these sterling silver earrings with flourites. This dude is getting SO GOOD. Look out people, there's an up and coming jeweler on the loose.

So I'm not the best at enameling (yet) but check out this mutant smiley badge I made. ;) Totally borrowed this from Transmetropolitan, which is one of the best comics ever made and if you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. Also in regards to my current level of enamel skill: sucking at something is the first step to being kinda okay at something. ;) That's a Jake the Dog quote from Adventure Time, by the way. Double cartoon references for today's post! . . . . . #enamel #enamelart #enamelpin #pin #hatpin #handmade #mutant #smiley #smileyface #transmetropolitan #spiderjerusalem #metalart #fanart #trevortwistart #trevortwistjewelry

Worked on installing this rad beastie last week with @dicapriaart . This is her 7 Eyed Jaguar, an interdimensional creature that will swallow you up, and spit you out never to be the same again. 😁 It was installed at the Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park last week for their nightlife event. Super rad, super fun. . . . . . #dicapriaart #dicapria #7eyedjaguar #jaguar #bigcat #interdimensional #pur #getate #guidedjaguarization

The electric crackle of the impact gun is like music to my ears. Bare Heart is coming along! . . . . . #sculptureart #art #sculpture #driftwood #brc #blackrockcity #ttitd #burningmanart #scavenger #beachcoming #driftwoodsculpture #trevortwistart #trevortwistsculpture

Enamels are pretty cool I guess. Turqouise enamel on copper. . . . . . #enamel #enamelart #trevortwistjewelry #trevortwistart #metalart #fusing #copper #pendant #seashell #handmade

Charm bracelet from one of last week's students, Sophia! This charm bracelet features classic charms such as avocado, toast and painters pallet. Hahaha! Cool piece. :) . . . . . #summercamp #artteacher #metalart #metal #art #startemyoung #celsiusandbeyond #metalfabrication #youth
