Kathy Wasilewski 6-10pm Thursday Eve	888 - Tin Souls	[back to quicklinks] $ 65 Plus $8 materials fee
Each of us creates artwork from the soul.  It is our means of self-expression that reveals who we are and what we are thinking. In this class, we will be creating our own art angel from an old tin and metal findings and which contains a hidden message deep inside its soul.  Students will be learning how to rust and work with metal as they use a dabbling block in their creations.  The body of the angel will be collaged and decorated using various collage techniques.  Depending on the various metal findings brought to class, each "tin soul" will differ from the class sample.  A fun class where your creativity and imagination can go wild!   Supply List: --Paper Mache oval plaque, 8" high x 5" wide x 1/2" deep (Note: These can be found at Michaels) --1 Package of upholstery / furniture nails --1 Slide Mount --Small handle or knob (with handware for attaching) --Large decorative tassel --Altoids tin (or similiar) --Sophisticated Finishes Rust Antiquing Set --Assorted metal findings, large and small (i.e. - piece to mount head on, decorative jewelry or accents,etc) --1 Large key to fit inside tin --Assorted papers for collaging --Exacto Knife --Scissors --Acrylic Paints (colors of your choice) --1" Foam Brushes (1-3) --Soft Gel Matte Medium or adhesive of choice --Strong metal glue (i.e. Liquid Nails or E6000)   Materials Fee includes: --Polymer clay face --Metal wings --Chain for hanging (with hardware) --Imagery for inside tin CLOSED - CLASS FULL
