Two slots left:
Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts
Pens and Beyond
July 23-29, 2017
By thinking outside the box, students with an interest in pen turning, kit alteration and personal style will gain or enhance their ability to create their own expressions by learning how to go beyond a packaged pen kit. Unique materials, styles and techniques are covered. Elimination of parts and augmentation of parts will create new insights into the artistic nuances of turning. Students will develop new techniques and discover their creativity during this course. Basics will cover how to sharpen and use the tools. Advanced skills are fine-tuned as the course covers finishing techniques, casting and stabilizing. You will create your own unique objects including bowls, boxes, shaving brushes, razor handles, bottle stoppers, etc. Open to all skill levels.
Don Ward started his woodturning career in 1996 after retiring from teaching. Don's woodturning includes popular items, but pens are his passion. His publications include the book "Turning Modified Slimline Pens: Beyond the Basics" and he writes a monthly article for More Woodturning Magazine (2006 to the present). Don has demonstrated at local woodturning clubs, The Utah Woodturning Symposium, The Desert Woodturning Roundup, Turn ON! Chicago, The Oregon Woodturning Symposium, and The SouthWest Association of Woodturners' Symposium (SWAT) in addition to teaching at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts.
Curtis O. Seebeck lives in San Marcos, Texas and has demonstrated and taught at wood turning clubs in Texas and at the Utah Woodturning Symposium, in addition to teaching at Arrowmont and the Mark Adams School of Woodworking. As the inventor and producer of the Worthless Wood resin and wood hybrid concept, Curtis has made significant innovations in the field of stabilizing and casting.
