    When I was in high school, I came across an article in Newsweek
    about something called "contemporary jewelry". They had photos of
    some of the stuff that was being done by cats like Olaf Skoogfors and
    other artists. I thought, "Holy Shit, human beings can make stuff
    like that? Could I do that, too...? Years later, as an Art major, I
    signed up for a class in college taught by a guy named Bob Jefferson,
    from Berkeley, described as a "goldsmith" (I liked the sound of
    that). Ended up taking a workshop with Robert Ebendorf, George
    Maclean came into town, studied under Ed Lund at Fresno State
    (forever indebted, Ed...)and, well, the rest is history. My point is
    that I had no former life. Thirty years later, I'm still doing
    it...something has always kept me interested and excited. Maybe
    even... passionate....
