DESCRIPTION
Unlock your creative potential in the vibrant world of opaque enamel jewelry! This workshop with expert teaching artist Aran Galligan is designed for artists of all levels, including beginners; it's an opportunity to explore the dynamic possibilities of color and texture in opaque enamel.
In this class, you’ll master essential techniques including sifting, torch and kiln firing, stenciling, sgraffito (the art of scratching into enamel), and basic metalworking processes. Aran will guide you through each step, from preparing your metal surfaces to applying enamel in layers, to create one-of-a-kind earrings and/or pendants.
Whether you’re looking to make a special gift for a friend or loved one, or keep them for yourself, you’ll leave with several finished pieces that show your newfound skills and artistic flair. Bring your ideas to life in a supportive, creative environment and take home a collection of colorful jewelry to be proud of!
