Learn to make 3-D works of art, including coming up with a design, assembling and joining materials, and mounting and finishing them. Bring in some favorite household objects, “curiosities,” or natural materials such as pieces of wood, seed pods, or colorful stones, and assemble them into evocative and durable sculptures. A group of natural materials assembled within a handsome wooden picture frame might become a “forestscape” relief. Garden sculptures are also possible. The instructor will bring in many tools, adhesives, and some sample materials, discuss the design process, and reveal tricks of the trade. Feel free to bring in your own favorite tools. You can work either with guidance or independently. This two-session class should give you some basic skills for working in your own space at your own pace.
Students are required to bring some materials. The Instructor will provide the rest.
Class $60 | Material fee $5
