Bonnie Mackintosh – (Pewterwork)
http://www.surreyguildofcraftsmen.co.uk/bonnie-mackintosh- designer/craftsperson from West Sussex who works in two distinctly different disciplines:
- Pewterwork – the careful hand modelling of thin sheet pewter for decorative effect and…
- Enamelling – the ancient art of fusing glass to metal
We would not bring a Tutor this far north if we didn’t think she was worth it. Yes, we know her name suggests she comes from north of here, but Bonnie’s accent suggests even more interesting origins. She is a recognised leading tutor of these disciplines and we feel those “oop ‘ere” should have a chance of enjoying her courses.
We try to spread out Bonnie’s courses alongside Enamelling with Dorothy Cockrell and Enamel Beading with Janet Notman.
