Introduction
This marquetry workshop will teach individuals the fine art of working with veneer to create designs and images. The class will start with a discussion of how to handle, flatten, cut and tape veneer. By the end of the course, students will master simple knife-cutting techniques by making several geometric or parquetry-type patterns. Participants will be able to master the specialty techniques for cutting and assembling pictures out of wood, which is known as “marquetry.”
