Tuesday evening carving and casting class.
Tutor: Vaune Mason.
This class is suitable for beginners and experienced students and covers carving in several areas:
- In jeweller’s wax for casting into metal, so you can learn to create your own designs simply and easily.
- In wood, so you can learn to select beautiful recycled woods to shape the wood into simple forms or more complex delicate creations for use as pendants, earrings, or as part of a larger silver piece.
Wood is one of the nicest materials to work, it is cheap to resource and non toxic, and can easily be worked in a variety of ways.
You can also learn cuttlefish casting, the simplest, most hands on, and quickest method of casting, should time permit.
Your waxes will be sent away to a professional casting company to be cast in the metal of your choice.
Course fees include some basic materials, wax, wood and casting fees. Your metal choice is additional, and can cost as little as $1.00 for bronze.
$360 for 8 weeks includes basic materials and resources.
