ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR, JULIANNE:
Growing up in a home where artistic expression was highly valued, I have been making art since childhood. In February 2020, I decided to turn my creative passion into a career as Golden Hours Jewelry. Although I have been primarily self-taught, I carry the common thread of determination and stubbornness that all good metalsmiths have. I am inspired by nature, history and stories. I love to share my creative enthusiasm with others!
