This one-day course for adults teaches participants the fundamental skills required to create sculptures at home. Our expert instructors will teach you these skills by guiding you through the process of creating a visually striking sphere.

The course goes from 8am – 5pm and you will go home with a 70cm diameter steel sculpture and the knowledge and skills you need to continue sculpting on your own.

You will learn how to:

• Use basic molds to form metal
• How to use jigs to hold patterns
• Shaping metal patterns
• How to use a MIG welder
• Selection and placement of patterns
• How to form basic 3D surfaces

Take a look at our Sculptural Spheres Artwork Catalogue. The ball is made up of 4 panels of cut outs. You can choose them to be all four the same or have a mix, two of one and two of another, or four different themes. They will be cut to each indivduals choice before the course.
