Kris shares everything she knows about textures and texturing, everything she has learned since 2008 when she first encountered metal clay.

How much can one say about textures? Apparently a lot, as there are eight videos in this course that add up to over an hour of education.

  1. Rolling the Perfect Texture (9:54)
  2. Texture Compared to Finish (11:21)
  3. Making Mirror-Image Pieces (7:08)
  4. Handmade Textures (18:16)
  5. Textures Mitigated and Shadows (5:21)
  6. Embossed Paper Textures (4:20)
  7. Relief Textures (4:43)
  8. Embellishing Textures with Syringe (5:07)

The two most important themes of this course emphasize making clean, crisp textures of any design and making your own textures for the artistic edge. The two main materials used are silicone and polymer clay, with a couple others tossed in.

This course is full of videos and photographs and about 35 pages worth of narration and how-to explanations. Some of the photos show some of Kris’ first experimentation and exploration in metal clay.

Remember this course's material is forever available to you once you purchase it.
