After his most successful workshop in September 2024, Will Davies returns for another carving workshop. The course will explore the capabilities of carving into thermalite blocks with hand tools (hand saws, chisels, rasps and files). Thermalite blocks can be a cheap, quick and effective alternative to clay and plaster casting, when making maquettes for simplified or abstract sculpture. Given their availability from any large hardware store, and no specialist tools required to work them, thermalite blocks can also be a great material to use simply as an introduction to carving and sculpture.
The cost, to include materials, is £55 for Wessex Sculptor members adn £75 for non-members. Full payment is required to secure your place. Light refreshments are provided but please bring you own lunch.
