RE: I'm a metalsmith, ask me anything about my studio/process.

And I thought I was messy!

Welcome to the Askme community. My question is at what age did you start getting into Metalsmithing?

Sort:  

Hi! I took my first metalsmithing class when I was 13 or 14 at a small studio. When I was 18 I started more formal training at a university. It's definitely addictive and there is so much to learn, I'll never stop!

Ah, at a very young age. Can people pick this up at any age right?

Yes, definitely! I have a friend in her 60s who had a hard time with her first class because of her eyesight. It definitely takes a steady hand and attention to detail!
