Jewelry classes

Last year, I decided to resume jewelry classes. This is a passion of mine that started many years ago in Argentina when I attended the workshop of Master silversmith David Vallmitjana.
David was in his eighties when I joined his classes but he was still very active and eager to pass his knowledge to his students. His dedication and love for this craft were contagious.
I went with joy year after year to this little place where I knew creativity would not know of limits and my ideas would be shaped into little metal objects.
Today, while I work on my designs in my studio, I think how important is in life to have a good teacher that instils passion for what you do. It is as precious as life itself.
