graduate, having had all her wire wrap and wire sculpture instructions
here. She began Wire I in 1999 and continues to upgrade her skills
today. She has studied under Bobbie Brown, Jane Mobley, Irene Francis,
Linda Chandler, Jessie Donnan, Betty Baxter and Dawn Thornton,with
numerous repeat classes under several of these teachers. She began
teaching in 2003 and assisting her husband with mineral identification.
Diane and her husband travel to several juried festivals with their
wire and silver creations each year. They also maintain a studio
in their home where Diane teaches private lessons during the winter
months. Diane loves to teach the beginning student wherever she
is, but will quickly tell you that her favorite place is at the
William Holland School.
CLASS DESCRIPTION
Students will learn the difference
between wire wrap/wire sculpture combination, partial wire sculpture,
and full wire sculpture. Before the end of the class the student
will be able to do all three successfully. Students should expect
to complete a total of 13-16 projects using cabochons, faceted stones,
donuts, and wire. Diane hopes that you come and bring your imagination
and be ready to design some of your own projects. Diane will contact
students by mail 5-6 weeks prior to start of class with a list of
necessary supplies. If student registers less than 5 weeks prior
to start of this class, they are expected to have supplies unless
you contact Diane (843-634-6497). Because of the amount of wire
used, this class is a bit expensive. In order to help the student
with expenses, the student is expected to furnish his/her own wire.
Any supplies other than wire will be available from the instructor.
