My silver clay journey...
I’ve been teaching enamelling for over 15 years and originally started using silver clay as a natural partner. It is so much easier to create silver pieces to enamel with PMC than it is using traditional silversmithing techniques, plus fine silver doesn’t get firescale! When my students started enamelling on silver clay, they also asked me to teach them beginner’s silver clay, which I have now taught for several years. Recently the opportunity arose to develop my skills further and become a certified instructor, the timing was right, so I leapt at it. I love teaching and learn so much from my students so I can’t wait to share my new skills and see what they do with them.
Favourite silver clay technique…
I love that silver clay can be combined with fireable objects. I am still an enameller at heart, so I enjoy exploring textures and ways to further incorporate my enamelling work and my flamework (Lampwork) creations.
What excites me most about silver clay...
It’s both user and eco-friendly, and there are so many possibilities to explore.
