Join Ross Barbera in a fascinating exploration into alternative materials jewelry making! This Jewelry Design Workshop introduces students to non-traditional materials and methods used to create beautifully colorful jewelry. Students will experiment and learn to make wearable jewelry, with emphasis on materials, processes, design, and a creative approach. They will be instructed in Ross' unique paper and wire fabrication process that frees their creative imaginations, enabling them to achieve finely crafted results in the creation of distinctively original pendants, bracelets, necklaces, and earrings. In addition to working three dimensionally on the jewelry objects, students are also engaged with the relationship between form and color, and are introduced to watercolor and acrylic painting to incorporate wonderfully fluid designs and splashes of vibrant colors into their creations!
