DESCRIPTION
Work with teaching artist April Ottey to make a wearable art piece inspired by the mountains and ocean of the Pacific Northwest. Using special finds that you bring to class, or selecting from April's collection of stones, you will create your own coastal treasures necklace by combining riveted and hinged beach stones with charms that you make. The charms can be made by texturing metal with flowers, leaves, or other materials as well as stamping. Your pieces will hang from your own handmade chain.
Techniques you will learn include sawing, piercing, texturing, stamping, drilling metal and stones, soldering, riveting, and making handmade chain and clasp.
