Granulation

Description

Granulation

Granulation is an ancient technique practiced some five thousand years ago by people with no modern equipment. In order to honor those who came before us, one who commits themselves to the time consuming practice of granulation, must have unlimited patience and respect for the craft. The process is repetitive and requires a great deal of skill and accuracy. During this class we will gain the skill needed for granulation. We will start with chain making to get accustomed to the fusing process and quickly move to granulation over the 5 week course. You will finish the class with some very fine granulated samples that can be used in finished pieces. This class is focused on the technique of granulation rather than on producing a finished piece. There will be a little bit of history thrown in the mix for inspiration and as always bring your imagination!
