Teaching electroforming EXCLUSIVELY online for Zurich Glass School we would like to present lampworker Terry Henry from the USA.
 
In our second offering Terry Henry will present this follow-on course from TH1, and delve into the use of electroforming with glass and conductive materials. 'TH 2: Designing and creating with conductive components' looks at materials that already act as conductors and revolves around the creation of an arm cuff. Participants are encouraged to utilise the elements involved with the cuff assembly which are shown in class, but own designs are encouraged. For anyone who has taken a class with Terry previously, this would be a great place to pick up electroforming where you left off.
 
TH 2 focuses on using previously electroformed components in its construction and design. Terry Henry uses cabochon beads, semi-precious stones, ceramic faces and electroformed lizards in her own designs and participants should gather some found objects for use in their electroformed pieces. Course includes learning the properties of electroforming when using conductive elements and how to manipulate a curved surface to accommodate your design.
 
This E-course includes two complimentary 'one-on-one' zoom consultations with Terry Henry to help you with the tricky bits, whilst receiving personal help and encouragement with the projects. It is advisable to use this consultation as our participants find them invaluable.
 
Technical handouts are also provided which help you with the science behind electroforming at a glance. Please remember, what we are creating is tricky and takes practice, logic, patience and an inquiring mind.
 
You can work through this course at your own pace. After purchase allow 24 hours, to be granted access to the Terry Henry 2 E-course channel. You will have six months unlimited access to your channel. You can watch the video demonstrations repeatedly in order to understand every aspect of the electroforming process. Please be patient until you receive the email which informs you that you have been granted access to your channel.
 
A folder full of goodies is included with this E-course channel which includes visual technical handouts, other technical data sheets which compliment your course and helpful pictures.
