Classes with Lis

Lis Simpson is a certified instructor for teaching Art Clay Silver. 

Art Clay Silver is water-based silver clay that can be molded easily.  It is fired with a torch or kiln to become 99.9% pure silver!  In the introductory class you learn the basic techniques of working with this amazing medium to make several textured pendants.  You will also learn some basic silver finishing skills. 

In Part 2 you will create pendants incorporating a pre-fused glass cabochon or cubic zirconium.   Several techniques will be explored, including bezels to hold the cabochon and syringe work.  The finished piece must be kiln fired. 

Contact Lis if you want more information on these classes (she also teaches out of her home studio.)
