Description

The taster workshop will give you a little insight into carving Portland stone. The design will be simpler than the day course, perhaps your initials, or a less complicated design, so you can finish your stone to take home.

What's included in the price?

My stone carving courses will give you the opportunity to sculpt a small relief of your own design (or by using one of my templates) on a piece of Portland stone. The course is suitable for ages 12+. Tools and materials are supplied as well as protective safety glasses. Appropriate clothing to be worn (i.e. enclosed shoes). The stones vary in size, but to give you a rough idea here are some examples: 22x20cm, 18x22cm. If you decide to use your own design please bring images/drawings of different sizes. (Keep it simple, to begin with). To ensure the quality of the workshops, classes are limited to six participants.
