How I Learnt

I’m still learning! You never stop learning with art and jewellery. As mentioned on June 2: How I started, Ken Raffe was my teacher and mentor, but I’ve also attended various jewellery and art workshops over the years, and will continue to do so, topping up and refreshing my knowledge. The dream is to one day (within the next 10 years) study for my Master in Design in Milano or Firenze.
