Good Discussion…I used to use the title ‘jewelry maker’ but here
in Pr ovidence that could mean that you operate a stamping machine
for eight ho urs a day. I kind of have a problem using the term
’artist’ to apply to myself… (even though that’s exactly what I
consider that I am) I feel l ike a self-proclaimed artist sounds a
bit pretentious, like bragging. La tely I’ve been using the term
’studio jeweler’ which I think is pretty cl ear and understandable.
What do ya’ll think? Thanks as always for such a great stimulating
site… Mark Kaplan
