SUMMARY:Soft Stone Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a creative journey into the world of Soft Stone Sculpture guided by the seasoned artisan\, Alasdair Scott. Alasdair has enjoyed a remarkable sculpting career spanning more than 25 years. He has a wealth of knowledge and skills to share with you all. \nThis Soft Stone Sculpture workshop promises to be an enriching experience where you get to craft and mould your own unique piece of art. By the end of the workshop\, you’ll place your masterpiece in a special spot in your garden\, courtyard\, or on your deck. \nHOW SOFT STONE WORKS:\nThe core of this workshop lies in the special blend of sand\, cement\, and vermiculite\, paired with a water-retaining agent. This blend is mixed with water\, then carefully poured into moulds. The curing process\, varying between 5 to 10 hours\, is subject to the weather season. When the workshop commences\, the blocks have solidified to a texture like damp sand\, allowing you to sculpt them using the tools provided. As the workshop progresses\, the blocks begin to solidify; consequently\, you gain opportunities to incorporate intricate touches into your creation. Additionally\, this solidification allows for greater precision and detail in your work. \nDrawing from a wealth of previous workshops\, Alasdair generously provides an array of examples that inspire aspiring sculptors. Alternatively\, you’re encouraged to be creative with your own ideas and design that complements the characteristics of this distinctive medium. \nThe block’s approximate dimensions stand at L 400mm\, W 270mm\, D 80mm\, providing a solid canvas for your carving experience. Though your artwork takes a few days to fully dry\, it will be as sturdy as concrete by the end of the workshop. Its resilience against the elements ensures that it withstands diverse weather conditions\, preserving its beauty through time. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy the end\, you will leave the Soft Stone Sculpture workshop not only with a work of art filled with creative satisfaction but also with a piece you can truly be proud of. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHAT TO BRING?\nThere is nothing that you need to bring to The Soft Stone workshop\, it’s all included in the fee! \nSome images of the ‘could be’ can be found in the UXBRIDGE pinterest board. \nMay Workshop Video Clip \n  \nPlease note there is NO refund or a transfer if you cancel less than 7 days in advance or once the class/workshop has started.

SUMMARY:Beginner Woodblock Printing
DESCRIPTION:Discover the art of traditional woodblock printing in this dynamic\, hands-on workshop designed for beginners and creative enthusiasts alike. In this engaging session\, you won’t just observe the process – you’ll actively design\, carve\, and print your own unique woodblock artwork using relief printmaking techniques. \nTO BEGIN: \nYou’ll explore the foundations of strong woodblock design. First\, you’ll develop a bold composition. Then\, you’ll simplify your imagery\, so it carves cleanly and prints clearly. You’ll also learn how to balance positive and negative space for maximum visual impact. With clear\, step-by-step guidance from Ina\, our experienced print artist and tutor\, you’ll transfer your design onto an A5 wooden block and confidently handle specialist carving tools safely and effectively. \nNEXT:\nYou’ll experiment with a variety of carving marks to create texture\, depth\, and expressive lines. As you carve\, you’ll watch your image emerge in reverse. This is a fascinating and essential part of the relief printing process. Along the way\, you’ll strengthen your control of line work\, refine your tool technique\, and prepare your surface for sharp\, successful printing. \nFINALLY:\nYou’ll ink your block and print by hand using a press. You’ll adjust pressure\, refine paper placement\, and manage ink coverage to achieve crisp\, consistent impressions. As a result\, you’ll produce a small edition of original prints that showcase your new skills. \nBy the end of the workshop\, you’ll take home your carved A5 wooden block along with a series of handcrafted prints ready to frame or gift.  Whether you’re new to printmaking or looking to expand your artistic practice\, this woodblock printing workshop combines practical skill-building with creative freedom. \nWHAT TO BRING?\nThere is nothing that you need to bring to Beginner Woodblock Printing workshop\, it’s all included in the fee! \nNeed inspiration – check out the UXBRIDGE pinterest board. \nPlease note there is NO refund or a transfer if you cancel less than 7 days in advance or once the class/workshop has started.
