Upcoming Studio Strolls
Saturday, August 3rd, 2024
Featuring instructor demos and student art from the following workshops:
Silver Inlay with Allen Newberry
Learn the basics of inlaying silver wire into wood. This is a beautiful way to decorate wood. While most commonly seen on knives and firearms this technique can be used as embellishment on many wood-based projects including furniture, boxes, and sculpture. Tuition includes a set of silver inlay tools for you to keep so that you can continue your practice at home.
Chasing and Repousse´ with Dave Darpinian
You will dive into the ancient metal art of repousse´. Have you ever wanted to create high-relief forms in metal? Learn how to use a chasing hammer and chasing tools in pitch to create a three dimensional work of art. Complete a copper cuff with a bee or butterfly, plus an additional project if time allows.
Mixed Media Doll – Clay and Fabric with Lisa Crews
Learn to use clay to model the head and neck, arms and hands, and legs and feet with attention to proportion. Color will be added to the pieces of the doll using underglaze, glaze, or paint. You will use hand stitching methods like sewing on a button. Hand sewing and machine sewing can combine to create the clothes for the doll and embellishments to finish.
