5- Pattern evolution (If there is more than just 1 lesson)
We will start building 2D (level 1) and then 3D shapes (level 2) creating colorful light effects and prisms.
6- Patina finish - Metal Oxidation
Once the piece is finished we can chose to alter the tin’s finished color – this can be cooper, black or just leave its shiny silver color without treatment.
*As the student interest grows I am willing to assist in any type of project, following up on the process of creation.
+ For those who are interest in Sacred Geometry- I am open to deepen our lessons into these topics.
+ I speak fluent English and Spanish, so I can offer my service in both languages.
