ADVENTURES IN FAUX BONE

Robert Dancik 18F WKS402: Sunday, Nov 18, 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM 1 session $125 Material fee $20 Material list: tasoc.org No senior discount or membership fee All levels Join us in this hands-on workshop as we explore an exciting new material called Faux Bone. Tremendously versatile, Faux Bone can be cut, carved, sawn, sanded, filed, hammered, polished, drilled, stamped, inlayed, dyed, or painted. It can look like ivory, have the patina of aged ceramics, or be polished to a pure white. You can rivet on it, die form into it, or hammer metal around it - it’s nearly unbreakable. Perfect for forming tools, tool handles, and jigs (and easily embossed to make texture plates for PMC), it’s great for artwork as varied as bookmaking, sculpture, printmaking and jewelry. Join us to explore these possibilities and more! Students can expect to leave with at least one finished piece of Faux Bone jewelry and several samples.
