Sculptural Mirror Frames

Session 6 | August 24–30

 

Swoopy Mirror (horizontal) by Lacey Carnahan, 202.4 Cherry hardwood, bricklay lamination, 14”x26”.

In this workshop, we will spend time exploring the elements of design to create a sculptural mirror frame of your own design. Participants will learn how to make patterns for various elements of your frames, how to safely use stationary power tools to mill rough lumber, and produce the stock for building your frame. Participants will learn the process of bricklay lamination, as well as various shaping techniques such as using rasps and files, abrasive tools, and routers. All levels welcome.
