TOM BISHOP’s CHICAGO INTERNATIONAL 2023 MY WORKSHOPS
A very late posting I know but wish to do it anyway just to remember they have been made and very appreciated by my lovely Students
WORKSHOP TITLE
“Before…”
DESCRIPTION –
“Before” because before being a cake almost every one of it starts with a flour fountain and few other basic ingredients like eggs, sugar and butter.
As it happens in all of my workshops every item has been carefully chosen to teach how to use a material or to learn a specific technique.
By creating this preparation board Students will learn lot of useful techniques that will be useful to create more miniatures later.
Almost everything will be modelled/built from scratch and step by step, so beginners are very welcome.
In this workshop we will use many different materials, including a little bit of polymer clay. Students will have a good panoramic view of the many different materials that can be used to create miniatures.
Particularly interesting will be the innovative materials used to create the flour fountain, I have never presented them in my previous workshops.
The accessories (a white dish, a small knife, small table cloth and the wooden board), as well as the materials needed to create all the items you see in the picture, are included into the kit that will be given each student.
During the workshop the teacher will provide “tips and tricks” also on how to safely use, store and bake polymer clay.
WORKSHOP TITLE
“After”
DESCRIPTION –
After a plain sponge cake is baked then it could be filled with a cream.
As it happens in all of my workshops every item has been carefully chosen to teach how to use a material or to learn a specific technique so by creating this preparation board students will learn lot of useful techniques to create more food and backing pans.
Almost everything will be modelled/built from scratch and step by step so beginners are very welcome.
In this workshop we will use many different materials, including a little bit of polymer clay, so students will have a good panoramic view of the many different materials that can be used to create miniatures.
The accessories (metal cream bowl, a small spoon and the wooden board), as well as the materials needed to create all the items you see in the picture, are included into the kit that will be given each student.
During the workshop the teacher will provide “tips and tricks” also on how to safely use, store and bake polymer clay.
Don’t be afraid if you are a beginner, I will guide you step by step in making all this items so newbies are welcome!
As I’m used to do in my workshops the subject is just the mean to teach students the tips and tricks I gathered in nearly 40 years of handmade miniature making and above all I like to teach techniques, these workshops are not a simple kit assembling: students will create almost everything
FIMO® will be the artistic modeling medium used in this workshop
