In this class students will learn to create accent rims, imagery, and translucent patterns using mineral crystal inlay.  This is a very busy class but it is a fun class.  Many tricks and techniques are included along with handouts on all the suppliers I use.  Regardless of experience level as woodturners and carvers, this class will challenge everyone.

Turning Off Center - Off Axis, Surface Enhancement and Colour
with Doug Fisher

In this class you will learn off axis double-sided sculpture using a vacuum chuck so that you can design on both sides. One side asymmetrical, one side symmetrical. You will also learn methods for applying the design, rotary carving, burning, and coloring. There will also be two short slide presentations which will touch on design, form and inspiration. You can apply most of these methods to your own work even if you do not have the convenience of a vacuum chuck. This hands on workshop is designed in stages so that you can experience what it is like to turn an off axis - off center piece on one side of the workpiece and then to use all the methods that Douglas uses to apply a design, carve, burn and color the piece. By the end of the class you should have something to be proud of and you will have picked up a number of new skills and techniques in the process, including how to turn an off axis off centre piece with or without a vacuum chuck.

Cost is $420.00 plus lab and material fees
