Metals: copper included
Join our guest instructor Peggy Logan to learn the traditional technique of kiln fired enameling. Enameling is the beautiful art of fusing powdered glass onto metal to create colorful and imaginative jewellery designs.
In this fun, two-day workshop, the fundamentals of enameling on copper will be covered including: cleaning and preparation of the metal; counter enameling; color chart explanation; and kiln use.
The students will learn to utilize many of the techniques employed in making enameled jewellery such as stenciling, painting with enamel, sgraffito, graphite pencil drawing on enamel, and application of rods and miliforie.
Students will leave the class with a new set of skills as well as a complete simple pair of earrings or a pendant, plus some sample tiles of the different techniques.
This course is required for attending the Intermediate Cloisonne’ Enamelling course.
