This comprehensive class is a great starting point for makers looking to introduce colour, pattern, and texture to their jewellery.
Over the course of three days, you will learn an extensive range of beginner techniques such as sifting, Sgraffito, stencilling, stamping, and graphite. Practical demonstrations will be spread throughout the course, giving you plenty of time to practise, experiment, and develop your work in enamel.
You will create a series of samples using the different techniques you have learned, and Elizabeth will also demonstrate some basic techniques for applying findings to your finished enamel pieces to transform them into a collection of colourful jewellery.
Your Tutor: Graduating in 2013 from Edinburgh College of Art, tutor Elizabeth Jane Campbell is an award-winning enamel jeweller based in Edinburgh.
What you'll get
Day 1: The Basics – Elizabeth will introduce the basic enamelling process and working with kilns through live demonstrations and presentations of a rich variety of samples. Students will get a feel for the studio and begin their own experimentation.
Day 2: Techniques & Design – Approach to design and decorative techniques will be taught through live demonstrations & group discussions.
Day 3: Consolidate & Create – Students will have the chance to create a small collection of finished pieces using basic findings such as earring hooks.
Knowledge required
For complete beginners
What to bring
We’ll provide all the things you will need for the Enamelling Summer School, including tools, copper blanks and silver findings. However, if you want to make a particularly large piece or additional pieces, extra copper can be purchased directly from the school at cost price.
Please bring along glasses if you need them.
Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for a studio environment, including closed-toe shoes. Why not treat yourself to a CSSJ branded apron to make you feel right at home?
If you have long hair, please wear it up.
If you are the type of person who prefers to arm yourself with some knowledge ahead of time, then we have prepared a Pinterest board filled with enamel information and inspiration just for you!
Students will not be permitted to eat or drink in the studio due to health and safety issues relating to enamel powders. This means you will need to arrange to eat lunch at a cafe/outdoors/in your car, etc.
