Beginning Techniques in Metal Clay
All the basics will be covered in this workshop. Students learn how to successfully work in silver, bronze and copper clay. Students will learn to create with dimension, implant stones and other materials, create hollow forms, torch and kiln-fire and explore a variety of finishing techniques. Projects will be presented daily but students are free and encouraged to express individual ideas.
