Bas-relief – Sculpture and modeling in jewelry
The Bas-relief course - Sculpture and modeling in jewelry is intended for all those who want to develop their ability to model and create replicas by taking impressions. In the first part of the course, you will be familiar with the role of geometric shapes in modeling. Then the chosen model will be divided into parts. These shapes will later be attached to a base. You will observe the characteristics and transformations of the materials during work and you will alter them using clear and practical landmarks as well as specific tools.
This course is ideal for jewelry makers, whether they want to work with metal clay, wax, ceramic, porcelain, polymer clay, etc.
In order to be able to book, it is necessary to have already participated in the course Introductory – Level 1 or have experience in using metal clay (metal clay).
