Workshop Concept
PAINTING TECHNIQUES ON STEEL
The Main concept of the workshop is to explore vitreous enamel on larger panels on pre-coated steel and copper. The workshop will focus on various techniques on steel with wet and dry application methods in industrial enamels. The wet process will include brush applications, spray process, pouring and dipping methods.  The dry process will include sifting method. Also other possible experimental techniques will be covered during the workshop.

3D ART FORMS IN COPPER
Copper has tremendous possibilities to form it into various shapes. It adds another dimension to the enamelling. Our main focus in this workshop on copper will be to create 3D wall hangings, sculptural forms and installations.
The workshop is fully residential and involves a high degree of interaction with the artists, designers and professionals from various fields as part of the learning process.
This course is regarded by the Timeless Moment Educational Trust as the standard entry-level training.
Places are very strictly limited to twelve, due to the working facilities and guest house accommodation and so early booking is essential to avoid disappointment. We take a pre-reservation to secure places.
