Join Jeannie in this beginners introduction to plaster carving. You will be guided in how to create a bas-relief. This means the piece you create has a flat back and a 3-D image that you have carved out, at the front.

You will be given a demonstration of how to use your tools and there will be examples of plaster work to inspire you.

You will draw your design onto the plaster in pencil before carving out your design.

It would be good if you came to the session with an idea of what you would like to make, but there will be images for you to get ideas from if not. A simple design will be easier to create and just as effective. The more abstract the better!

There will also be the opportunity to use chalk pastels to add pops of colour to your carving.
