Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this stone carving class:

Learn to sculpt in stone like the Renaissance masters! The process of carving stone with hand chisels and mallet is an extremely satisfying ancient art form. It is a medium that develops manual dexterity and craftsmanship with a high degree of mental and perceptual stimulation.

We are pleased to offer instruction for all skill levels. Learn to see what naturally emerges from the stone and how to carve your vision into reality. Options for carving include: drawings, relief carving, and carving in-the-round. You will learn how to finish the stone to a shiny polish, and/or create unique textures.

Our instructor will help you design your stone sculpture, and teach you how to remove material using hand tools like rasps, files, and chisels. After your sculpture emerges from the stone you will learn how to polish it. 

Much of our ancient history is carved in stone and we still believe that stone is absolutely relevant for sculpture during this digital age. Won’t you join us?

Important notes:

  • This class meets outside and under a pop up. Please bring a face mask and wear comfortable shoes and clothes that can get dusty. Bring lunch or snack if desired. We have a refrigerator, microwave, and water dispenser.
  • The price of this class includes instruction and use of tools and equipment. You will need to either purchase one of our stones or bring your own. Beginners typically start with soapstone or alabaster. We keep a small supply in stock at our studio for the students’ convenience. You are welcome to purchase your first stone elsewhere and bring it to your first class.
  • As stone carving takes time and patience, we suggest registering for a minimum of 4 classes if you have a particular project in mind.

Question from Sanam
How long is the class? For absolute beginners, do we need to bring stone in the first session or will it be focused on just carving soap?
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hey there, Sanam! The class is for 4 hours and it's only one session class. Beginners start with a bar of soap and then move to soapstone as it is soft and forgiving, for once the stone is carved away it is a final part of the artwork and cannot return to the stone.
