2005
In 2005, The first Grand Masters Program® brought Ron Smith and Winston Churchill to instruct at the GRS Training Center. Ron instructed students during the first week, guiding them through multi-color inlays and advanced shading methods. Students learned which color of metals to use for the best composition, preparation of cavities and channels for inlay, finish their work, and solve issues that might arise during the process. During the second week, Winston led students through techniques to push their work further, including relief engraving, sculpting, bulino, flush and raised gold inlay, work photography, and more. Both instructors worked with traditional chasing hammers and hand gravers, but the techniques they shared were independent of the engraving method.
