Plus a Material/kit fee payable in cash to the instructor on the second day of class.  This fee is determined by you in the first class (based on your project) and what you wish to be ordered by the Instructor.  Please read the FULL Description/Outline at the bottom of this page.

This six week class is an opportunity for you to experiment in the studio with an instructor close by.  Every student is expected to bring three drawings of potential projects to the first class.  Together the class will discuss these designs, the necessary techniques, and possible issues that could arise.  Each student will select one design (or technique) to focus on, and together we will build your materials order (to be paid for at the SECOND class) and an action plan.  Weeks 2-6 are studio time for you to put your plan into action.  Please note the instructor is there to assist you with problems as they arise, they will not have lessons planned for class.
