What Others Have to Say
“Excellent class, Victoria, thank you for sharing your time and expertise!”
Cynthia Smutny
Jewelry Artist
“I loved how everything you did was not edited and perfect! Seeing an imperfect piece every now and then really helps us to correct similar issues. Thank you, Victoria, for an excellent class!”
Jean Van Brederode
Jewelry Artist
“Victoria teaches techniques used for millennia to create many of the great works of art one can see in museums. She has found tricks that streamline and improve the processes, and she uses them to make strikingly contemporary pieces rooted in the ancient world. The number of places one can learn these skills in the US can be counted conveniently on one’s thumbs. In Japan, Victoria would be considered a national treasure, and she would be funded to pass these skills on to the next generation.”

“All Victoria’s classes are amazing and inspirational and joyful. She is a true artist sharing tricks, skills, tools and amazing handouts to keep and she makes you feel it all is within reach. Her jewelry classes are of a different level. I am looking forward to more classes!”
