Class Description
This workshop will focus on mixing, pouring, layering, coloring, and embedding objects in Resin!   A day practicing the many variations and uses of resin will give you the confidence to use resin in your other projects.   

We'll take a break for lunch and there are places nearby to grab a bite, but you can also bring your lunch if you want more workshop time to practice.

Tools and Equipment
What you’ll want to bring:
Tweezers
Scissors
Items to embed in resin (seashells, papers, beads, wire, string, dried flowers, etc.)
If you'd like to bring a pre-made bezel, be sure to use 24g strip wire instead of bezel
Students will have more fun if they google resin art jewelry prior to class and find inspiration
Cash or check made out to Jennine or cash for the $45 Materials Kit

Materials Kit  
Two part Ice resin, measuring cups, stir sticks, easy squeeze lids, an assortment of items to practice on, and play-doh. Resin kits have everything students need. Jennie will bring a huge assortment of acrylic paints, beads, papers , stir sticks and measuring cups for students to use.

About the Instructor
Jennie Milner is a silversmith and muralist from Fort Collins, Colorado. Her Sterling Silver & Resin work is featured in galleries from Orange County, California to Seaside, Florida!  Jennie brings a painterly aesthetic to her resin work finding innovative ways to use acrylics, water color, and powdered pigments throughout her process.  Color adds an element of surprise and Jennie likes to walk the tight rope between being a technically proficient silversmith and a wild carnival in a box! 

Jennie uses traditional silversmithing techniques that she learned earning her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Colorado State University, but instead of plopping a stone into a bezel she creates a field of color with hand-colored Epoxy Resin.  Some pieces she paints on cured resin and coats to seal and others are embedded color fields.  Every piece of jewelry is an experiment where Jennie stretches the boundaries of Resin.

Maximum ten (10) students. All participants will be required to sign a waiver.
