Our own Louis Kutyla is off to his next adventure. This time school in Milan. Who knew what kind of talent we were launching from my tiny sandbox way back when. And who remembers when he was shorter than me (well almost). Very early we gave him the nick name of Young Jedi because it was clear that the force was strong with this one.
Not to be deterred by a little thing like a PANDEMIC he scooted off to Antwerp to attend the Alaxandre School of Optical Diamond Setting, furthering his skills, working, and taking on the mantel of teaching our newest Jr-Artist-in-residence, Claire Busch. Always willing to help out he also helped us install plexiglass in both studios.
After a goodbye lunch there were lots of tears as this goodbye signifies that he is truly out of the nest. Bryan and I will miss this second son. My heart is simultaneously heavy and full of joy as he embarks on this next stage of his life. The SilverWorks family will miss him.
