In this premiere workshop, you’ll learn the basics of working with this exciting new metal clay.  First make tear away to use for texturing the BronzClay, then explore texturing, working with molds, appliqué, gem setting, and hollow form construction.

Bronze clay remains truly flexible when dry, allowing for a wide range of forming and sculpting techniques. This quality also lends itself to beautiful, smooth carving.  Firing and finishing and patinas, both naturally occurring during firing and those we’ll make, will be demonstrated and discussed. Learn how Bronze Clay is similar to PMC, and how it’s different, and how to approach combining the two.
