Nan Jacobsohn Animal Mask Sculpture Workshop - $235
*Kiln Firing is an additional fee if needed
Animal images have intrigued human beings since before recorded time and across cultures around the globe. We may admire a particular animal for various attributes…their beauty, strength, the elegance of movement, and fierceness.
In this workshop, each person will sculpt and create an Animal Mask in clay. In the process, we will explore ideas for enhancing the eventual finished project with found objects of the artist’s choosing. This can be fiber, metals, wood, or a bit of whimsy that expresses the artist’s interpretation of their chosen subject. Nan will share information on how she finishes the surfaces of her sculptures.

Please bring a sack lunch each day or something that can be heated in a microwave. We are going to use every minute of both days because this project requires that. I will be starting the workshop with a demonstration exactly at 9 o’clock each day. so please plan to be there before and set up at your space. I have so much I want to share with you and I don’t want you to miss a thing!
