Robert Begay is a young Dine artist who is making extraordinary jewelry. In this video he tells of his background, his artistic influences, his love of turquoise and we see some beautiful jewelry.
Bruce Mead was the Bisbee Rock Man and he taught me how to cut turquoise. In this video he shows how to attach turquoise slabs to the doping stick for cutting. Its a bit rough but worth learning from
Thank you. Next time Philip is in town we will do another series of interviews.

I really appreciate all of your interviews, but I'm an especially big fan of your interviews with Phil. He's helped me quite a bit in my own mine research as well as helping me with my collection. Thru him, I've gained a better appreciation for the trials & tribulations of a turquoise/variscite miner. down to earth, high IQ and overall great dude! Your blog series is a great complement to your landmark books. thanks.
