Athena Gowton - Guest Teacher

Store Catalog > Classes by Teacher > Athena Gowton - Guest Teacher

Born in England and raised in the Greek island of Cyprus, Athena came from a very artistic family. She was drawn to art at a very young age, starting with drawing & painting. At the age of 15, she was accepted as a jeweler’s apprentice at a small family run shop. From the moment she created her first knotted pearl necklace it was here she developed a love of jewelry making.

  Over the years she tried different avenues of jewelry making, such as polymer clay, PMC and Macramé. But it wasn’t until she started teaching jewelry making in March 2006 that she discovered wire working. Self taught, she developed her wire working skills over a period of three years while continually expanding her knowledge and creativity. From the moment she taught her first class, she knew that this was where she belonged.
