This is a fun activity in Bath
Join artist Tansy Tester for a hands-on workshop where you will explore the art of relief casting using fresh flowers and natural objects. In this session, you'll learn how to create intricate and textured plaster casts, transforming your chosen objects into beautiful, lasting plaques.
You will learn how to roll clay, arrange your chosen flowers, mix plaster, and clean and refine your plaster casts. A variety of flowers will be available for casting. You will be guided through the process with step-by-step instructions and helpful tips to create your own unique work of art. By the end of the workshop, you'll have your own cast, ready to display, showcasing the fascinating details of the flowers you’ve chosen.
This workshop is perfect for anyone interested in exploring new techniques or creating one-of-a-kind pieces, whether you're a beginner, an experienced artist, or looking for a meaningful gift for a loved one. All materials are provided, so you can focus entirely on your creative process.
There will be a break midway through the lesson to allow your plaster casts to set. Tea, coffee will be provided.
