The workshop begins with a relaxed, step-by-step demonstration where you’ll learn how to prepare and roll out clay to form the base of your artwork. You’ll then be guided through arranging flowers and foliage on the clay’s surface, carefully pressing them in to capture their delicate textures and details.
Once your botanical design is complete, you’ll create a mould before mixing and pouring plaster over your clay impression. While the plaster sets (around 30 minutes), we’ll pause for tea, coffee and biscuits and talk through how to finish your piece.
Then comes the exciting part: peeling away the clay to reveal your beautiful floral cast — pure magic!
You will make one medium piece and a few little keepsakes.
