Metals & Jewelry Studio • Touchstone Center for Crafts 1049 Wharton Furnace Road FarmingtonPA  15437 Organized by Touchstone Center for Crafts

About this event

All Levels* $220-$270 Materials and Studio Fees** Transform your ideas, drawings, or personal photos into lustrous enameled surfaces as you explore mark making, painting, and drawing to capture your inspirations with the exciting possibilities in the colorful world of enameling. You will explore dry sifting, stenciling, silk screens, and sgraffito in combination with painting and drawing techniques using a variety of materials, from underglaze pigments to overglaze paints. Shimmering details will be added with mica powders, metallic inks, and precious metal foils. Participants may choose to create a collection of working samples to later inform their work, finished pieces to be set as beautiful enamel jewelry, or small works to mount on the wall. *Some experience with enamel or metalwork is helpful but not required. Any painting and drawing skills will support a participant’s experience but are not required. *Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
