In this 3-day intensive workshop, attendees will use two different types of metal clay (silver and copper) and a variety of techniques to create four to five pieces to take home.
 

Info and Materials Included in the Workshop:

You will be provided with both silver and copper metal clay to create several items during this workshop.  Additional metal clay can be purchased from Rhonda at the workshop. "Metal Clay Tools

A basic tool kit will be required and available for purchase. Rhonda will also have a variety of tools for use during class.

There will be lists and discussion on tools for an expanded tool box. "The nice thing about working with metal clay is that you can start out with very basic tools and purchase other tools as you expand into the use of metal clay in making your pieces. Some tools are essential for certain types of projects (for instance, making rings).

Feel free to bring any items that you would like to utilize for texturing (stamps, small moulds, cutters, etc.).

Some silver and copper findings will be available for purchase during the workshop. Rhonda will also have cabachons and gemstones (both natural and lab-created) available for purchase. You can use those to augment your pieces you will be creating.

Rhonda Denney

Rhonda has dabbled in artistic endeavors all of her life.  She always enjoyed clay as a medium because she could sculpt with it.  One day she saw a woman wearing a silver necklace that looked like it had been sculpted.  Come to find out, it was made using metal clay.  She wanted to learn how to use it and soon went from a Level 1 silver Art Clay certified instructor to a Senior level instructor.

Rhonda Denney enjoys experimenting with all the possibilities with creating wearable art pieces.  She loves introducing others to this wonderful medium of metal clay.
