Flameworking Sampler Workshop

Sat Mar 14 • 12–3 PM

Description:

Curious about flameworking? This fun, hands-on workshop lets you sample beadmaking, marble shaping, and simple borosilicate sculpting. Students will also create a bead stand and marble stand to take home. Great for beginners who want to try it all!

Sometimes painting seems so fun, but you have no idea how to start. What colors do you use? How do you fill the canvas in an interesting way? What do you do with the background? During this class we will experiment with different color palettes and learn how to develop interesting colors. The focus will also be on developing interesting compositions that draw the eye through the canvas, have backgrounds that compliment the subject and feel well thought out. Throughout the class we will work with acrylic paint. Paint, brushes and  canvas panels will be available or you can bring your own. In the first class we will discuss materials and options. 

$10 material fee included
