Workshop Description: The structural details of an animal are always most important, but with this picture, the color plays the greatest role in the presentation. Contrast is the major factor to successful coloring here. It has been a while since background color has been included in one of Kathy’s workshops, and this background has much more to it than meets the eye. The moose is embossed on leather cut to 8” x 10” and colored with acrylic paints. Your finished picture will be suitable for framing.
Materials to bring: Tooling surface, mallet, spray bottle or sponge & water dish, stylus and modeling spoon, swivel knife, ball modeler, pallet knife, smooth bevellers, smooth matting tools, smooth pear shaders, figure bevellers, paint brushes – flat and round, various sizes.
Workshop Instructor: When she was very young, Kathy started her leathercraft career as a 4-H project, not knowing what it would lead to many years later. She has become the recipient of prestigious awards, such as the coveted Al Stohlman Award and Master Leather Artisan of the Year from the Academy of Western Artists. Figure carving has become her primary focus, and she is determined to share everything she has learned.
Workshop Sponsors: Hermann Oak Leather Co. and Renia GmbH
