Marquetry is the art of creating imagery using wood veneers. We will explore the creation of a simple mountain motif, which allows for enormous variations in color, shape and texture. It is easily applied to any substrate to create boxes, wall hangings and jewelry, such as the brooch pictured or the thwart of your canoe. We will learn technique in this class and discuss many applications as well as creating a few simple brooches to take home.
