Second Video Chasing Class at NSS

Today I taught the second two hour session of my second video conference chasing class. I am in NJ and the student is in the Boston Ma. area. The fist session went about 3 hours, ( one hour over planned) to get the cameras, on both ends of the call,  just right and figure things out together. We spent time getting to know each other and deciding where she needed to start based on her level of Chasing and Repousse experience..

I had a basic plan and we more or less have had an easy time following it. Although video teaching has its limits with a physical sculptural technique, I am pleasantly surprised at how much we can really accomplish. She is doing great. She has some homework and we meet for the third 2 hour session next Friday.

Over this period of lock down over the country, I have been doing just about everything by myself.I am spending time on the things I like to do the most and connecting with people more these days. I decided to finish a limited run of mini matting tools. I only made 50 of them. I made a video (see below)on the process and loaded it onto youtube as well as Instagram. I have also discovered the usefulness of bulk email. From the social media outlets many of you added yourselves to my mailing list https://nechamkin.com/about-us/contacts-resources/ to be notified when the tools were loaded on the website and ready for sale. I sent out my first Mail Chimp Eblast and within an hour of that, 17 of the 50 were already sold.  If you’d like to grab one of these tools click this link. https://nechamkin.com/chasing-tools/limited-edition-tools/
