Hello -

    I am an artist very interested in jewelry design.  I work full time
    and cannot take the workshops I've seen listed at various schools
    lasting one week to six months.  There is one community art school
    in my immediate area offering classes, but given when the classes
    are offered, it would take me a couple of years to have the skills
    to work on my own (problem number one).  Problem number two, if I
    did piecemeal classes at that school, I would not have anywhere to
    work, as this school is only set up for courses and does not rent
    studio / bench space. 

    I would be interested in taking courses online or working with a
    mentor in my area: Northern Virginia/Metropolitan DC. 

    I am also very interested in learning CAD/CAM, and wonder if there
    is a user-friendly software (I know Rhino is apparently very good)
    that anyone can recommend. 

Thank you!
Ms. M. Mac
