LORENA ANGULO - MILAGRO HEART OR BURN-OUT CORE PENDANT, MAY 19-20, 2012
In her first class on the East Coast, Lorena taught students how to create a burn-out core pendant by forming a shape on top of a burn-out core bead and adding their own personalized symbols. Students learned to carve and hand sculpt their pendants with PMC3 and fire it over a core bead to achieve a hollow, openwork form adding a wonderful dimension. She also taught students how to hand sculpt flowers and carve details in the pendant.
