Its a stunning day here in Edinburgh and the sunshine is making me think of the summer….. when the fantastic Holly Gage will be coming to Edinburgh to teach two amazing workshops in Metal Clay!
On the 25th & 26th of August she will be teaching her Repousse Effects in Metal Clay. Ever since I’ve been working with metal clay I have been a huge admirer of Holly’s work, and I remember marveling at her stunning pieces of jewellery and thinking “how did she do that?”. In this course Holly will share exactly how she transforms a picture of photograph into stunning focal pieces like these……….
Then on the 27th & 28th of August she will teach her “Elegant Meadow Pods” course, showing us how to make beautiful silver pods like this one….
Its become something of a tradition now to have a guest Artist come and teach for Art Clay Scotland. Back in 2008 Sherri Haab visited us teaching her Image Transfer Techniques. She returned later to teach the UK’s first ever workshop in BronzClay
Then in August 2009 Robert Dancik came to teach how to use his Faux Bone…
and in the December Hattie Sanderson came to teach her first ever workshops in the UK to a full house…
returning to us last July …….
and then last October the fabulous Gordon Uyehara came all the way from Hawaii just for us 
. Here he is with one of our team – Deanne Holden.
I am so excited that Holly accepted our invitation to come to Edinburgh, and cant wait to meet her again. Four days of learning new techniques with one of the most highly regarded artists in the field…… roll on August !!!
