Pocosin Arts Workshop

Chasing & Repoussé with Nancy Megan Corwin happens November 2 – 4. This three-day workshop will focus on the techniques of chasing and repousse' for beginners.  Chasing refers to detailing and texturing the front or presentation side of a piece of jewelry or hollowware.  Repousse' means to push out from the back and refers to using metal punches from the back side of a sheet of metal to create raised forms on the front.  The two techniques are most often used together and result in low, medium or high relief art pieces created from sheet metal. Tuition is $345 for this three-day course, and the registration deadline is September 15, 2012.
