Learn basic sculpting techniques by carving in plaster and vermiculite–a beautiful, soft material that is ideal for your first sculpture, and had a wonderful rugged look! During this workshop, you will sketch an idea and use clay to picture what it will look like. Then you’ll learn basic sculpting techniques; use household tools such as knives, forks, rasps, and saws to create your sculpture; and sand and finish your work. This is a great way to start thinking in three dimensions!
