Etching Metal: A Workshop (Registration closed/class full)
Saturday, May 17, 2008 10:00AM – 3:00PM (Bring Lunch)
AND Possibily, Sunday, May 18, 2008
If students decide that they want to practice what they’ve learned.
Instructor: Pamela Lund

Learn how to safely etch your own hand drawn designs into copper, brass, bronze and silver. Simple techniques, inexpensive materials and a creative imagination will provide you with an exciting, versatile new artistic dimension. We'll discuss how you can use your finished pieces to imprint designs on other materials, add patinas and attach your metal to other materials with easy "cold connections". Hands-on etching, along with demonstrations, will allow you to experiment on the various metals and take home some of your own etchings.

Pamela will provide a list of materials to bring. However, the instructor will probably have students bring things like apron, plastic bowl or tray with tight fitting lid, sketches or designs they would like to use.
