Precision Stamping with Barry King

Description

Barry King

Prescott Resort – Copper Basin

Wednesday 02/19 8:00 am – 12:00 pm

All skill levels welcome!

Workshop Description: Barry King has produced thousands of basket stamps over the years and he’s tried every single one of their designs! This workshop will consist of basic to advanced designs using your tools. Barry will begin with design overview of placing brands, initials, or floral designs into the geometric patterns. You’ll learn proper usage of tools to create the designs they are meant to create, and then use the same tools to create new designs. Attention will be given to how to orient the tools so that they line up as well as address how to fit your design within an allocated space (border-to-border). There will be open discussion for any questions on finishing projects as well. Barry will have many tools available to try to see what designs you can create with them.

Materials to bring: Stamping stone, mallet/maul, ruler, square, stylus, geometric tools, wing dividers, note taking materials and a camera.

Workshop Instructor: From his first leather project as a third grader to an artist in his own right, Barry King has remained true to the Sheridan style of carving. Though the majority of his time is spent developing and perfecting tools to carve and stamp leather, Barry, the 1994 Ann Stohlman Youth Award recipient and owner of Barry King Tools in Sheridan, Wyoming, still finds time to put his own leather tools to work.

Workshop Sponsors: Hermann Oak Leather Co., Barry King Tools, and Tandy Leather
