Q & A interview with Western Australian artist SAM HOPKINS !!!  ​ Q.​You use some incredible materials in your works, how did you learn to work with these…materials like aluminum, timbers and stainless steel? ​ A. We are fortunate enough to live in a time where you can learn just about anything online. I’d say about 80% of what I have learnt starts with countless hours of research online and then just giving it a go with lots of trial and error. The best way to learn is just to do and make mistakes. I’ve learned the rest from surrounding myself with artists and fabricators who are experts in that particular medium and asked plenty of questions.  ​ ​​
