MARQUETRY WITH JACK WHITWORTH
JACK WHITWORTH
a Calgary resident, has done Marquetry for over 30 years.
The window method taught in this workshop is a traditional hand technique using a small knife. This method where the design is constructed piece by piece as a single sheet of veneer is then fastened to a baseboard upon completion. This allows the user to achieve exceptional detail and has raised the craft to great heights of artistry. Participants will have the opportunity to compete a small picture from materials provided. Participants need to bring a small X-acto style knife with No. 11 (small pointed) blade. Limited to 10 participants, $99.00, includes materials.
