A one or two-day polymer clay workshop that

will teach the artist how to make the proprietary

Burlesque Blend on day 1 and then, on day 2,

turn that blend into a wearable work of art.

This workshop will focus on a proprietary technique for creating a beautiful

surface veneer called the Burlesque Blend. The second day will instruct the

student in working with multi-level pieces, designing a jewelry piece incorporating

texture and/or glitter and/or pearls/gemstones/metal. The focus will be on

making a pendant similar to the red one pictured in the middle.

The workshop will

also discuss the process for incorporating the Burlesque Blend into the other two

designs pictured above.
