Ceramic and metal clays share a great many characteristics. For this reason, combining them in a single art form seems a logical process. Students will combine ceramic clay forms with fine silver clay to create spirits, fairies or whimsical faces. Already fired ceramic clay faces will be provided.
Project: A unusual and dramatic fine silver pendant, fibula pin or sculpture adding character and emotion to a ceramic face.
Techniques:
- Learn the similarities and differences between ceramic and fine silver clays.
- Learn firing schedules for combining the two materials.
Class Kit: ceramic face.
Materials: PMC3 clay and paste are required. Sterling silver wire is required for the fibula pin. Class Kit and required materials are available for purchase at the time of the class.
The fee for a two day class at Big Arts is $160 for non-members and $128 for members. Class Kit Fee varies based upon materials chosen by the student.
