Prerequisites: All metalsmithing levels welcome
 
Who doesn’t want to add a little color to their jewelry, or maybe your own patterns and images? This workshop focuses on Deb's technique for drawing on metal with colored pencils. Learn to add color and excitement to your work with her special technique.
​
In this 3-day workshop you can expect to finish at least one pendant and several sample pieces. Fabrication techniques will be covered as time allows.

***An optional Cuttlebone Casting session will be held the Thursday and Friday directly prior to this workshop for anyone interested in casting a unique workpiece to draw on for this workshop. If you do not choose to participate in the cuttlebone casting, please arrive with completed workpieces to draw on.
