Jewelry WORKSHOP
|
| |
BIGLinks
Instructor:
Thomas Mann
|
| |
Think BIG! This NEW three day workshop will introduce participants to sculptural perspective on linkages for jewelry. A variety of materials and techniques will be explored in the creation of BIGLink bracelets, neckpieces and belts. We’ll employ the fabrication techniques of die forming, forging, chasing, hot connections (soldering) and cold connections.
Thomas is known for his Techno-Romantic® style of jewelry, but what most people don’t know is that most the work he designs starts off BIG! — More like sculpture to wear. But from this beginning all kinds of wonderful, wearable jewelry objects emerge. Tom invites you to join him for a weekend of thinking and making BIG.
