In the late 60's Bob was introduced
to the lapidary world through a small hobby shop in Utah. Since
that experience, he has always had hobbies requiring hands-on activity.
From stained glass to lampwork, the beauty of glass has always drawn
him. Fused glass, lampworking and enameling have been the media
where Bob could actively pursue his love of glass. Enameling is
his primary focus. Fortunately, he lives only a short distance from
the Thompson Enamel Company, and has been able to continue learning
his craft from some of the best artists and technicians in the field.
As he approaches retirement from teaching, he finds that he enjoys
sharing his love of enameling with others. CLASS DESCRIPTION This is a beginning class focused
on fusing glass and metal together. Basic metalworking will be used
to create items to enamel. Several styles of enameling and different
methods of application will be covered such as sifting, wet packing,
stencils, sgraffito, etc. A supply kit with enamels, metal and application
tools to use and take home will be provided for $95.00. Feel free
to bring your own tools and/or materials to use in class. Extra
materials and tools will be available for purchase if desired. Bring
your imagination and be prepared to have fun with enameling. LAB FEE: A class fee of $35.00 covers an enameling handbook, a class notes summary, a shapes library, color charts, a trouble shooting guide, a resource list, reference materials, additional class materials and use of tools supplied by the instructor.
