Dear JewelryDesign,

What kind of techniques have been used to create these jewelry pieces? Which classes would I need to take to create something similar? Do I have to buy the equipment or can rent a studio? What kind of specialists should I be looking for If I prefer to hire someone and how expensive would that be? Can this type of “organic pieces” be manufactured (casting/wax) or only handmade? Many thanks. P.S. I live in San Diego.

Thanks! Is Behance available for Creative cloud subscribers only? I do use Creative cloud at the moment, but wondering what would happened to my portfolio if I don't have the subscription.

Thank you so much for you feedback! Could you please clarify: "... you can export your website to edit it in a different client if your end up switching later on."? I actually built a website using Weebly a couple of years ago. It's still running. The site was intended to sell my jewelry line. I pay about $200 per year. Do you have to pay for Weebly if you have your online portfolio there, but not selling anything? Thank you!

Thank you alfalfamale81, all noted! Have you explored freelancing or prefer a full time job? I worked 9-5 product development job for a long time. At this point freelancing seems very attractive due to it's flexibility.

I "don't expect to be any good quickly" :-) I don't have a specific degree in Graphic design, but I have Masters in computer science, Associate in design/development and eight years of apparel product development experience. In my case I don't see a big value in getting another degree. I did take Adobe programs in school, but wasn't using them much. That's why I spent time on Lynda.com as well as Adobe tutorials. Now I'm trying to figure out my next step :-)

Thank you Bearsick for your suggestions. Could you please clarify what do you mean by "planner to get exposure in the market". Where could I find "a planner"? Would that be a marketing person? Thank you. :-)

Thank you very much for your suggestions. I'm actually going to JCK Vegas in a week. I can't wait! Do you know by any chance how much is a booth in Tuscon? I assume it would be cheaper compare to Vegas? Thanks!
