Expired Creative Surface Development

  • Posted by Leah Meleski
  • Date December 10, 2020

SOLD OUT

This class is full but Winter Quarter programs are available for registration!

3 Day Workshop

Dates: Friday, Saturday & Sunday, December 10–12, 2021

Time: 10:00am–5:00pm

Instructor: Andy Cooperman

There’s more to surface than meets the eye. In fact, next to form, it may be what most defines an object and gives it depth and character. But it so often happens that we come to rely on a handful of basic textures rather than developing our own creative surfaces. The goal of this workshop is to fix that, to uncover new ways to consider surface, to loosen up and experiment, generating a wide variety of metal samples–“flash cards”.

The goal of this fun and fast-paced 3 day class is to play and experiment, developing a series of sample “flash cards”, each accompanied by detailed notes about just how the surface was produced, so that it can be replicated for future application. Then, using some of the surfaces discovered, participants will build a brooch or pendant. A simple but elegant brooch finding system will be demonstrated.

This class focuses on heat-generated surfaces as well as rolled, hammered and abraded finishes. Discussion includes using natural surfaces as source material as well as how and when to apply surface texture during the construction of a piece. Bring a sense of play and a sharp pencil–there are sure to be lots of tips and tricks.
