Millefiori Doodles in Polymer Clay with WANDA SHUM

Description

Join us for this in-person workshop on Vancouver Island and plan your creative summer!

Millefiori is an ancient technique that can be described as a combination of sculpting and painting. This technique has been applied to many different types of media, such as: Glass, Ceramics, and Wood.

Wanda will share her years of experience as an artist in the technique of Millefiori using polymer clay. Polymer clay is a medium that allows for the mixing and blending of colours to create depth, variety and contrast.

You will learn to ‘doodle’ with black and white clay to create a variety of interesting patterned canes. We will take slices of these cane components to collage onto a glass vessel or mug. Finishing techniques will then be demonstrated.

Your materials fee includes the polymer clay you will need and a glass vessel.
