I completely misunderstood the original explanation. I understand it clearly now, I have seen other students in my class using these techniques, however, the most soldering operations I have seen done on one piece is three. I can't even imagine what my nerves would be like to try to do 12 soldering operations on one piece. This is a lot of work and I didn't realize how much work goes into one of your pieces. I am awed by this.<BR/><BR/>I hope you realize how lucky you are to have such talents with metal. It's as though you can turn your imagination into works of art. You are also luck to have had your father for a teacher, I still wish I was able to learn from him, he was so talented...I think you have inherited his gifts and added your own gifts which adds up to some really beautifully crafted pieces of jewelry.<BR/><BR/>I will keep watching for more pieces that seem to come right from your imagination into your hands and become something wonderful.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the compliment about my roses, it means a lot to me.<BR/><BR/>MarieMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07768750831336270080noreply@blogger.com
