    Very definitely - I studied graphic art and commercial art
    throughout my university days and painted in oils and acrylics for
    many years before being introduced to the metal working scene. I
    would definitely say the skill of layout and color combinations and
    the sense of balance in design have definitely carried over into my
    design work. Plus all those hand/eye skills I learned not only as a
    do-it-yourselfer growing up, but also in sports activities all
    contributed to my comfort in working with metal. I can hardly imagine
    anyone working in the field of jewelry who does not connect the dots
    to past skill training in all directions.
