This is the turquoise tutorial I taught last year at Morrisburg. Really the reason i'm so nervous about teaching this year. I have to keep reminding myself that it will be different...last year I taught a class I wasn't sure of, not enough experience with...I think faux work is gorgeous but I think differences are limited, I can't tell one artist's faux work from another in most cases...anyway, I wasn't prepped enough, I wasn't forceful enough to have my students pay attention and I was very uncomfortable with being alone and teaching a class of 40+...if they were sitting in seats okay, but no, they were standing around me, some on chairs, very very freaky. THis year I have an assistant and a smaller class and it's doing caning, really what I'm most comfortable with.
I'd post a faux bone tutorial but there are plently out there...perhaps my faux coral? |
