About this Event
This small animal sculpture class is an ideal class for beginners to create their own creature sculpture. Suitable for ages 16+
The classes will run over two weeks on the 13th March: 12pm-3pm - 20th March: 9am-12pm
Monte Lupo Studio--269 Padstow Rd, Eight Mile Plains, QLD
WEEK 1 | Saturday 13th March | 12 pm -3pm
You will be guided through the process of forming the body of your Echidna sculpture and giving your sculpture some personality through sculptural techniques! You will learn slipping and scoring techniques and embellishing your masterpiece using flowers, butterflies, or even a bowtie and top hat! The possibilities are endless.
WEEK 2 | Friday 26th July| 10am - 1:00 pm
You will be guided through the process of decorating your piece, ready for firing. You will learn how to use different underglazes and coloured slips which transforms your piece and makes it come to life!
After the second week, your piece will be fired by our talented team at Monte Lupo studio, ready for you to take home. Firing times take around two weeks, and your piece will be ready for collection in Monte Lupo's reception.
Please note, we do not provide every underglaze colour. If there is a particular colour you want and we do not provide, please purchase your own from Pottery Supplies, Milton at your own expense.
