Painting on Porcelain Tiles

Painting on Porcelain Tiles

The Worcester County Arts Council is pleased to offer a Painting on Porcelain Tiles Classes on Tuesdays, March 24, March 31, and April 7 from 10 am – 12 noon at the WCAC’s Arts & Education Center located at 6 Jefferson Street in Berlin, MD.

Instructor, Jayne Collinge, will demonstrate the techniques required to transfer a design onto a blank porcelain tile and apply paint to add color and depth. Participants will choose to paint from the following designs: fruit, flower, beach scene or a seascape to be transfer on the piece of porcelain tile. The piece will then be fired in Jayne’s kiln and set in frame to be used either as a wall hanging or a trivet.

Step-by-step demonstrations and a relaxing style promises you a fun learning experience in an encouraging and supporting atmosphere. No previous experience necessary.

The cost for each class is $25.00 or $60.00 for all three classes. All supplies are included. Members of the WCAC Arts Council receive 10% discount upon registration.

Jayne Collinge has been teaching porcelain art since 1973 and has won many awards for her work. She has ornaments in the Smithsonian’s permanent collection and has been commissioned to custom paint pieces for many that include Barbara Bush and Hillary Clinton.

Space is limited, so please call the Arts Council to register 410-641-0809.

Registration deadline is March 18, 2009.
