Jean’s Instruction  With over thirty years of experience in my own jewelry and enamel work shaped by study with more than 50 of the world’s leading specialists, I am able to focus the instruction on your particular interests, guiding you toward your personal goals. Located in Vista, CA, in North San Diego County, I teach a wide range of basic and advanced Enamel classes, both privately and in multi-day workshop settings. With no preset, structured class schedule, I'm flexible in working with your availability. Please Contact me to find a mutually agreeable date and area of focus. New to Enameling?  I present an extensive overview with examples of the range of possibilities, from delicate earrings through large wall pieces. You see the full range of the possibilities available to create what you want to express. Together, we will explore both classic and modern techniques and materials as you work on your first pieces.   More advanced and want to explore a specific technique?  We’ll go there and concentrate on the specific areas with which you are less familiar. Classes Private instruction is $100 for each six hour increment, and may be split over two sessions if you’d prefer.  A beginner's kit, which includes  an extensive syllabus and some basic equipment, is supplied. Continuing students will want to develop their own supplies and tools. Your class is reserved with your payment at time of signup, which must be at least a week before the class. Unfortunately, we can’t refund no-shows, so if you can’t make your appointment, please notify us 48 hours before hand.
