The Crown Jewels - Wearable Reliquaries
Duration: Full Day Class
The earliest reliquaries were simple box-like designs meant to hold relics that were often the physical remains of saints. In the broad sense, a relic is a venerated object and in this workshop we will be making ancient looking jewelry pieces based on that traditional box-like shape.
We will create small spaces in these “wearable reliquaries” to hold an item of personal significance like a Milagro, strands of hair, seeds, a photo, charm or jewelry parts. I recently created a small reliquary that holds my dog’s tooth!!
We will cover a variety of techniques using polymer clay including using rubber stamps, acrylic paint, transfers, mica powders, mica,
embossing powders, gold leaf and even shrink plastic.
Laurie will also demonstrate techniques for embedding all types of materials into the clay and for creating windows in clay. We will also explore ways to create faux metal-like surfaces.
Open to all levels.
Class cost $295 (Per Day)

There will be several styles of doll to choose from or you are welcome to investigate in your own direction. There will be lots of sharing, demonstrations and suggestions as Judy shows you her modeling and painting approach.
