Spring 2015 Class Offerings and Descriptions

Why take classes with me? 

Besides the fact that I'm really nice and funny, you will learn so much; promise! Also, you do NOT have to bring any tools or supplies when you learn with me.  I provide everything.  Now isn't THAT refreshing?
I do have various supplies available for purchase, but that is strictly another convenience I offer.

Classes:

Seated Lady - Sculpting with fabric allows complete freedom of expression and is easy to use 
This is an 8-hour workshop split into 2, 4-hour classes.
In this workshop, you will be guided step-by-step in creating a beautiful sculpture suitable for interior or garden décor.   I will show you how easy it is to create a sculpture using wire and tape and Powertex and fabric. You will learn how to make an armature; which is a very valuable skill to have. We will build up a body and then dress and drape her in fabrics.
We require 2 days to allow your sculptures to adequately dry so we may add the glorious finishing touches that will really make you say, 'Wow!'.
