No Experience – Beginner | TBD Materials and Studio Fees*
In this workshop, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of painting enamels and their application on copper. The class will cover cutting and forming copper shapes, proper surface preparation, and the use of sifters to apply enamel base layers in multiple colors. Participants will explore various painting techniques using enamels and overglazes to achieve depth, precision, and tonal variation. Through a series of firings, participants will learn to control color development and surface quality. The workshop will conclude with setting the finished enamel piece in metal, integrating design, technique, and craftsmanship into a cohesive final work.
*Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor.
