"Master Engravers." How do they come by the title?
This was a very general question.
Because it was posted here I'm going with the idea of it's implication as applied to the U.S.A.
Fortunately the designation Master has be eclipsed in the US by the FREE MARKET.
If it were a law then this past discussion would pale compared to what a National or World governing body would be like.
Besides this European style system had a long run, now it's personal ability and how much your clients think of your work $$$$$$$$$$ After all, If it don't sell, it ain't art.
I am a past Profession Member of FEGA, I know most of the folks there. You will not find a better group of artists/freinds anywhere.
It's the only group of it's kind. Created in a time when this Art,Trade,Hobby,Folly was on life support.
There is really only one rule.
If you can't play the game by the rules, Don't Play the GAME!
