ClayDay 21st July 2019 Report

20/9/2019

 
Apologies for the delay of this report. The website admin (aka Nadia) has been busy all summer with hosting family, house-sitting, driving 6 hours to Lake District and even commissions! Without further ado, here is the report for our most recent meeting in the peak of summer. 

Shelley kicked off the first demo showing how mica powders (and some eye shadows) can be used to 'paint' a solid colour sculpture. The results are amazing and as long as the clay is raw/uncured, the powders will stick to it really well. You can simply add more layers of the powder for a more effective coverage and better effect. These powders have micro-metallic pigmentation that will make your project shiny and sparkly!

Enid demonstrated to us different ways to apply mica powders, how to remove powders, mixing powders with liquid clay and applying them. She also showed us how you can shave soft pastels into powder that can also be used but without any metallic effect.

And another brief demo on how to use gold leaf for a crackling effect.

Of course this technique can be applied to almost anything you are making but Enid does give us some lovely inspiration.

It's always fun to see what other members have made. ClayDay is the opportunity to show them off.

We had all of our usual tables, sales and raffle with terrific items for members to win/buy/borrow.

We hope everyone had fun and looking forward to the upcoming one happening this Sunday!
