Shop trolls

trolls? are you being realistic? it’s one thing to be artistic and
another to be strange! my cats do not touch my bench let alone
gremlins! you need to clean your area more often. i clean my bench
weekly, much to the chagrin of my coworkers who may have misgivings
about their existence but none of them have trolls. as artists we
need to make a statement as to how proud we are and fortunate to be
as creative as we are. we are the mainstream in the art community
that keep the public and the corporate community supporting our work.
we are unique and we may think differently at times but we still have
an image to uphold as artists. next week i will talk about flush
setting genuine colored stones.

you need to clean your area more often. 

Sorry, but I think there are trolls. My bench is a habitual mess but
my employee’s is spotless. We both have the same problem with the
trolls, or black holes, or spatial voids, whatever you want to call
them.

as artists we need to make a statement as to how proud we are and
fortunate to be as creative as we are. 

I’m not sure I understand how cleanliness relates to this. Could you
perhaps expand on it please. Also if we just feel we’re a jeweler
and not an artist, does that mean we’re allowed to be messy? For that
matter, I’ve never been inside a painter’s studio that wasn’t pretty
messy. Is it only jewelry artists who have to be clean?

Exactly what image is that? That we’re all clean and don’t talk
about trolls? Boy, I have got to change my ways here.

Personally, and I know others agree. “Never trust a jeweler with a
clean bench”
