UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
From T-Shirt to Garden Statue
Learn the basics of working with Paverpol and create your own one-of-a-kind sculpture! During this class you create a sitting or standing sculpture using Black Paverpol and an old cotton t-shirt. The hand-made wire frame will be wrapped with pieces of t-shirt that were saturated with Paverpol.
The sculpture will be brought to life by dry-brushing paint on it. You can high light it with a Bronze, Green, Blue or any other color. The photo seen here is an example of what you could make. The sculpture will be approx. 30 cm tall.
