Learn to create pattern and imagery by combining copper, brass, bronze, and nickel silver. Traditionally called the technique of marriage of metals, we will go over tips and tricks for cutting material, soldering, and preparing for further steps of fabrication. Participants will discover how different metals react under the torch and how metals can be formed after being combined. We will cover how to make checkerboard patterns, polka dots, and illustrative imagery.

All of our online workshops are recorded and, with purchase of the seat in the class, students have access to the recording(s) between workshop sessions as well as for 60 days after the workshop ends.
