9739.A Embellishing Turning
Workshop - Wood | This class has been canceled
Expand your turning repertoire to include color and texture beyond what the wood gives us. Students will create a few small objects like spinning tops and candlesticks, and embellish them with paint, markers, woodburning, and power carving. We will talk about shape and scale, color, specialty tools, sharpening, and finishing. This is a great introduction to taking woodturning in a more sculptural direction. The class is open to students ages 18 and up. Masks and social distancing are required in this and all Sawtooth classes.
Materials: A $10 materials fee is due to instructor on the start of class.
