Creative Silverwork

with Abelardo Gil "Grillo"

This course will consist of an introductory period devoted to intensive soldering exposure, followed by a broad spectrum of techniques (including riveting, bending, compressing, roller printing, pressure settings, scrolling, fusing, shot work and unit construction for sculpture) presented fully but briefly so as to give students an opportunity to choose from a wide range of effects and combinations. Make your own bracelets, rings and other jewels in gold, silver and precious stones.

The materials required will depend on which item of jewelry the students may choose to begin with. Instructor will let you know where to get it.
