Class Description
A very popular animal to make and to be seen standing in your garden or wood all year around. Your deer will be standing, in any pose you like which is why it is best to do some homework first. Please bring along some photographs or drawings of a deer and the pose your sculpture hopes to adopt. Of course there are lots of images at Welig and a collection of small animal toys for the full 3D effect. Alison will happily talk through your ideas before you get started, to ensure you have the time and materials to complete your deer sculpture. Please note - your deer will not support antlers. Whilst suitable for beginners, this course requires fairly speedy work however Alison will be available to make ears and tails and help you bring your creation together throughout the day, as required. You will be working in brown willow (willow that has been harvested and dried with its bark on, before being prepared for weaving.) or buff/white or coloured willow for inside. Brown willow sculptures once treated will be suitable for leaving outside. Start - 9.30 for 10.00 when tuition begins Break for light lunch - dietary preferences considered Finish 5.00 (Alison will be around for an additional hour to ensure everyone goes home with a finished item they are proud to have made) The workshop is suitable for anyone who is new to working with willow as well as those with a little experience. Further details and exchange of ideas available on booking.
