Hello Everyone:

    I really hope to someday reach the level, professionally, where my
    work is shown all over the United States and abroad, the level where
    people sit around talk about my work and call it ugly. I'll be
    laughing all the way to the bank.

    When joining this list, I had hoped that I would find a place of
    sharing knowledge and insight about the world of metalsmithing and
    jewelry. I have huge amount of respect for the abilities of many of
    the artists on this list. I dream of one day doing what you guys are
    doing. I admire you.

    Aren't there other things we can talk about? The woman featured in
    the Times the other day is enjoying success in the thing she loves to
    do. I'm happy for her. I didn't come to the forum to pick apart her
    jewelry. I don't need to pick her apart because I'm too busy trying
    to find the success that she already has. 

    I have lots of technical questions about my work and the work of
    others, but I probably would never be brave enough to post them for
    fear that you guys will eat me alive.

Best Regards
Kim Starbard
