Stone Carving

ONE DAY WORKSHOP

An introduction to stone carving skills and processes, this workshop will guide you through making a sculpture for your garden.

Working on a half block of thermalite breeze block using surforms/saws and files. Using your own ideas or working from forms in nature, the day will consist of a short introduction by the artist about her work, followed by instruction on how to get a 3D shape from the block. Participants will be encouraged to use their own ideas for the sculpture but the artist will provide inspiration if needed. Do bring your own references, photos or drawings: a good idea is usually a simple one! Anne Marie will provide support as works progress through the day.

All materials are provided.

Masks/goggles will also be provided and worn where necessary.
