Lady in Rags Course
Discover how to turn Old T-Shirts into Textile Sculptures. This course is divided into three components and available as a 3 half day course or a full day and half course usually over a weekend.
Over three sessions you will:
- Learn to form build using a plaster bust and everyday household materials and design the 'bones; of your sculpture
- Discover the wonderful potential of fabric hardener and powertex techniques to fashion design and 'dress' your sculpture by using salvaged textiles and potentially your own found objects, broken jewellery, precious scraps, or family memorabilia.
- Finally learn dry-brushing techniques and colour pigment blending to embellish and varnish your statue and bring your artwork to life.
Beginners Welcome. You will definitely walk away with a fabulous sculpture to amaze friends & family.
All tuition, material, tea & coffee included. BYO Lunch & special requirements (favourite Apron or special gloves or dietary)
Cost: $250.00 but discounts apply for bringing a friend or four.
