Woodturning

Color and Texture in Woodturning

Course Overview

A bowl can be many things: elegantly minimal, astonishingly embellished, and everything in between. Spend three days turning various shapes of bowls and exploring texture and color with Elizabeth Weber. This course will examine form, where to find inspiration, and how to successfully transfer those ideas to finished pieces. We will also cover coloring techniques using milk paint and acrylics. By the end of the course, students will have created pieces that tell a story. This course is open to beginning woodturners, but will have plenty of rich content for more experienced turners as well. Note that students must purchase and bring a specific set of gouges for this class.
