A fun introduction to the art of metal embossing, learning how to make traditional ‘corazones mexicanos’ – Mexican hearts or sacred hearts, based on the Mexican artform of ‘milagritos’ – ‘little miracles’.
We’ll start off the workshop by working on your own heart design, which I will guide you through.
Once your design has been drawn, I will take you through the methods of metal embossing the heart. Once the metal embossing has been finished, we will decorate the heart with both acrylic paints and Sharpies.
The finished heart can then be used as a wall or window decoration.
This workshop is suitable for beginners.
