Back Jacket Description
Learn how frames with patina finishes bring photocopied
images to life. Gwen demonstrates how to create a look of antiquity
to photocopied images and how to build frames to complement images ranging
from Italian Renaissance Madonnas to Geishas. The basic frame building
techniques you’ll learn will be a springboard to creating endless
variations. Finally, you’ll learn how easy it is to use a new,
non-toxic patina product to transform your frames into ancient bronze
artifacts. (102 minutes)
Gwen’s work with polymer clay combines a love of ancient images
and surfaces with her experience as a fashion accessories designer.
She is known for teaching a broad range of surface techniques that simulate
the time-worn quality found in objects that come to us from long ago
and far away. Gwen teaches in France as well as nationally.
