The Polymer Clay Guild of Montreal, Quebec, Canada presents 2 workshops by Kathleen Dustin September 2016
NEW TRANSLUCENT TECHNIQUES IN POLYMER CLAY
September 9th and 10th 2016
2-day workshop for all levels except beginner (know how to make Skinner blend and simple canes).
While making a brooch, each student learns how to layer translucent polymer clay to produce a rich depth of surface using polymer heat-set paints, simple millefiore, gold leaf and powder inclusions, carving, sanding and buffing. At the same time, Kathleen presents basic artistic principles to aid students in making decisions as they work with this involved technique. Please contact Jean jeanrutka@sympatico.ca

LARGE HOLLOW POLYMER BEADS
September 11th – 12th 2016
2-day workshop for all levels except beginner (know how to make a Skinner blend and simple canes).
It’s wonderful when large beads can be visually statement-making, but it’s not enjoyable when they are too heavy to wear comfortably. In this workshop, Kathleen will teach constructing and assembling large light-weight hollow beads in organic/geometric shapes, then covering them with polymer patterns using a variety of techniques. As in her other workshops, Kathleen will also discuss basic design principles as she leads students through inventing and making their own beads. Please contact Jean Rutka jeanrutka@sympatico.ca
