I am a metalsmith trained in the commercial jewelry field (meaning I received my unofficial "apprenticeship" from working in the wholesale/retail jewelry industry) with folks who had their own shop and were willing to show me what they knew. I spent 15 years in the profession and then switched to teaching. I teach jewelry and small sculpture at Lewis &amp; Clark High School in Spokane, WA, and have done so for 23 years. While I teach full time, I have my own business as well doing the occasional job for people I know.</p> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> <p><a href="http://www.artmetal.com/blog/mike_campbell/2012/01/jewelry_instructor_metalsmith">read more</a></p> http://www.artmetal.com/blog/mike_campbell/2012/01/jewelry_instructor_metalsmith#comment education goldsmith jeweler jewelry repair metal arts stonesetter Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:38:50 -0600 Mike Campbell 11856 at http://www.artmetal.com http://www.artmetal.com/blog/whiskey_71/2010/08/about_to_get_started <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <p>First a fond hello to everyone. My name is Scott Ellis and I will be commencing a second Bachelor's degree in January 2011. I'll be pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) with a concentration in Metals at the Appalachian Center for Craft in Smithville, TN. This is a satellite campus of Tennessee Technological University in Cookeville, TN. I'll be studying a little bit of everything: jewelry making, blacksmithing, polishing, some design, etc.</p> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> <p><a href="http://www.artmetal.com/blog/whiskey_71/2010/08/about_to_get_started">read more</a></p> http://www.artmetal.com/blog/whiskey_71/2010/08/about_to_get_started#comment Beginning artist education new recommendations Tools Mon, 16 Aug 2010 11:14:07 -0500 Whiskey-71 10211 at http://www.artmetal.com http://www.artmetal.com/blog/ajtivol/2009/09/the_beginning <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <p>Last Wednesday I attended my first class in Art Metal Design at a local community college.
