Spirit Animal Bust Workshop

Description

Unleash your inner artist in a unique clay workshop: Spirit Animal Bust Workshop! 

Join renowned artist Kim Clarke for a hands-on experience where you’ll sculpt a beautiful bust in clay. Kim will guide you through the process, focusing on fundamental techniques and the concentration needed to capture realistic facial features. But here’s the fun part: you’ll then be able to integrate a spirit animal element into your creation, adding a personal and whimsical touch. 

The workshop runs from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with a lunch break around noon. Don’t worry if you need a little extra time; we’re flexible to ensure everyone can complete their masterpiece. This is a chance to learn, create, and connect with your own unique artistic vision.
