STONECARVING AND SCULPTURE
The aim of this course is to introduce a valuable skill in a short time and to enable students to create something from stone, opening their eyes to the creative possibilities of stone carving. Students learn simple masonry and carving exercises: roughing out, carving, refining and perfecting the use of mallets (hammers), chisels and rifflers.

MATERIALS
