Picture This! Imagery in Enamel

Intense workshops have to be my favorite classes. I love cramming as much information as I can into a weekend and using that information to actually create something fantastic. This workshop makes me wish I was still making jewelry!


Maybe you know enameling basics, or maybe you're an expert but you're looking for a way to make your work more uniquely yours. Learn how to bring out your inner illustrator or photographer or painter with Picture This! Imagery in Enamel with Mary Chuduk at Maryland Institute College of Art, Jewelry Center at Meadow Mills.

Explore a fresh approach to drawing and painting in enamel, using ceramic pencils, line drawing, sepia decals, and painted over-glaze colors for delicate color washes and details. Experiment with the subtle and brilliant colors of sifted and wet-packed enamels for both recognizable and abstract imagery, on flat and slightly formed copper or silver. Enhance the images with lusters, inlays of metallic foils and leaf, cloisonné wire, and fine copper mesh. Drawing and/or painting experience is helpful but not required.

The Jewelry Workshop, Picture This! Imagery in Enamel with Mary Chuduk will be held on
Saturday & Sunday April 18 and 19 from 9:30 am – 4:30 pm. The cost is $280.
