Building with Formers
Building with Formers
This workshop is all about having fun and being creative. You will be guided with demonstrations, support and examples, on how to make a animal themed sculpture from clay.
You will be provided with a pre rolled slab of clay and a former to make a Hare or Hound, designed to be glued to a backing board for wall mounting (boards not included).
You may find that during the build you see a different animal developing and you have the choice to turn it into another animal. Just go with the flow and let the clay speak to you.
You can however, make something completely different too. Just check with me before the session so I can make sure it'll work.
You will only be able to paint your creation once it is dry which takes around 1 week.
'Paint your Pots' workshops are listed on the home page.
Whilst the timings are listed as 1pm - 5:30pm, you don't have to stay to the end. Work at your own pace and go when ready.
If anyone is running late, I will provide further individual support once the group are working on the first stage.
Suitable for complete beginners.
Adults & Children over 10 years.
Please be aware that I will not be firing your work in a kiln. This is how I keep my pricing down. However, kiln firing is not necessary. You can make your items waterproof and suitable for food storage in different ways. I can make the inside of items food safe during the Painting Sessions. You can make them waterproof with yacht varnish, at home once the paint and resin is fully dry.
Important Info: Venue is wheelchair friendly. The function room is accessible via the garden gate. No need to go through the main door. Free parking.
Bring a medium to large container to take your creation home in.
The club has a bar with light refreshments available to purchase such as tea, coffee, biscuits and crisps. Alcoholic beverages also available.
Bring your own snacks!
*no refunds within 5 days of the workshop*
