Artists can often be left confused and intimidated as they struggle to determine the correct tool to use to get a desired result. This is with good reason; many tools come with inadequate instructions for use (not to mention safety!). Add to the mix the fact that many artists like to work with widely varied materials, and the stage is set for this class...
In this new expanded 2-day workshop with found-object artist Keith Lo Bue, a myriad of tools and their uses will be covered in layman-ready and safety-first detail, with ample time for students to explore each of the techniques demonstrated.
Tools surveyed will include the Dremel tool, various hand drills, flex-shaft tool, jeweler's saw, and many others. In two information-packed days, students will be drilling, shaping, texturing and polishing metal, glass, stone, wood, ceramic, shell, plastic and more!
HERE IS WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT KEITH'S WORKSHOPS:
Artist Michael deMeng was quoted after teaching a collaborative workshop with Keith Lo Bue as saying "Keith is extremely knowledgeable in tools and how to use them. A great instructor!"
Caryn Crimmel Says:
“I took the "tools of the trade" class a few years ago and I still would say without a doubt it was the most valuable class I ever took.
Keith tells all the stuff you need to know and others assume you already do.
Most importantly how to keep from killing yourself with the various tools and processes we're experimenting with!
I refer to the notes I took to this day!
The cost of this class is more than made up for in no trips to the ER.... also I have so much more in my repertoire of techniques. I don't go out and buy every dang tool on the market now that I know how to make the most out of the common tools I already have.
This is the one class I think every mixed media person should take no matter what.”
