Online Learning with a Joyful and Detailed teacher really works for me.
I chose Lucy Walker Metalsmith Academy because of Lucy's high energy and engaging style. Now that I'm working my way through the "Roadmap" I'm finding that her teaching style is very detailed and I'm getting way better results than I ever have in other classes. Although I've been taking classes off and on for 18 years, I've started at the beginning of the Roadmap. I'm practicing the basics and performing finishing techniques I never learned along the way. I love the way the online classes are structured...

Empowering!
I discovered my love of jewellery making in early 2021 and found Lucy Walker’s Metalsmith Academy at the same time. Talk about the stars being in alignment for me as I went from absolute beginner to having the confidence to start my own handmade jewellery business within months. So empowering!! The course is brilliant with outstanding instruction - videos, handouts, step by step processes, super handy tips and more. The projects are motivating and well-sequenced to build skills steadily. The creative kickstarters are awesome for stretching your creativity - see my image...
