Course
Rosemaling: Old World Style & Traditions
Course Overview
Discover the old-world styles of Norwegian rosemaling and European decorative painting traditions by painting on a ceremonial wooden ale bowl. Join Gold Medalist rosemaler Judith Nelson Kjenstad for the unique opportunity to learn rosemaling using a free-hand technique, then apply your skills on a prepared bowl that is truly a Norwegian folk tradition, a ceremonial drinking vessel. All skill levels are welcome to join the class - it is a great project for rosemalers with previous experience and fitting for the enthusiastic beginner as well. Students who have previously taken the Wooden Bowl Turning: Norwegian Ale Bowl course are welcome to bring their own bowl to paint if they desire.
