Resin Inlay

Add color to your work! You can create textures, colors and patterns without relying on high fired enamels. By employing epoxy resin, you can add wood, bone, paint pigments and sand. Raid your kitchen cabinet for spices like turmeric and oregano. We will fabricate jewelry based on cloisonné techniques with sterling silver wire, sheet and tubing. You will build a palette of amazing colors and textures to build your pieces. Some soldering knowledge is helpful.

Karen recently returned from a special resin inlay class held at Burning Man, which is a week-long creatively inspired festival that takes place annually in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada. This is the second year Karen has taught Resin Inlay there. If you'd like to see some class photos, please check out this link: resin inlay class photos
