September 2, 2012 Leave a comment
I am now well on with plans for some exciting new classes for 2013, including some fantastic guest tutors follow the link for a sneak peep at the work of one of them!
In the meantime I still have a few places on the following classes
Saturday 22nd September 2012 Introduction to Art Clay Silver £145
Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st October 2012 Cloisonne enamel on art clay silver £350
A two day workshop. On the first day you will design and make a silver pendant, learning about design for enamel. On the second day you will prepare and apply wire patterns followed by thin layers of enamel, firing each layer in turn. You will then learn methods for finishing the piece to a high standard. The course includes small amounts of enamel, enough to complete the project.
Saturday 27th October 2012 Introduction to Art Clay Silver £145
Thursday 8th and Friday 9th November 2012 – two day workshop. Glass and art clay silver combination beads with Lynne Glazzard £360. On the first day you will learn to apply a variety of art clay silver products to the surface of glass beads before firing and annealing them in the kiln. On day two you will make some art clay silver beads to complement the glass beads before finishing them all to a high standard. Some glass beads are included in the course fee but not the art clay silver. A detailed materials list will be supplied in advance but you will need approximately 20g Art Clay 650; 10g Syringe type, Art Clay Silver Overlay paste. There are still places on this exciting class and the following photos are examples of the types of beads you can make combining art clay silver with glass beads to make your own very unique charm beads for your bracelet.

Art Clay Level 1 certification – Dates by arrangement and price on application – subject to the prices of kits required to make the projects chosen. This is a four day course following the syllabus set by the Aida Corporation (manufacturers of Art Clay Silver). Seven projects are made over the four day period, including rings, earrings, pendants and a brooch. The course fee includes the materials to make the seven projects and the use of tools and equipment. The projects are assessed and if completed successfully an application for the certificate will be made to the Art Clay UK Guild. If any of the projects are unsuccessful then arrangements can be made to ‘remake’ them at additional cost to the student.
