The
MetalClay Artisan Guild in Connecticut kicked off the month with our Annual Fall Show and Sale. The Friday night reception was a great time, but what was really exciting was filling Saturday with demos for all levels of artists. From a basic introduction to metal clay techniques to more advanced processes, there really was something for anyone interested or even just passing by. I shared my organic pasting techniques, from selection of organic materials to preparing metal clay slip to layering and drying techniques.
Lis-el Crowley (lower left image) demonstrated how the new art clay formula lends itself to working with delicate coils and Alexis Crowley (right image) demonstrated how traditional carving techniques for printmaking can be applied to create texture plates for working with metal clay. The day also included demos in working with base metals, carving in metal clay, working with textures and getting started in metal clay. A special thanks to Susan Dunne for including us in her
Art Smart Blog that week which helped us reach a broader audience for this show!
