The full day class is on August 29th from 10-5pm including clean-up. This is a hands-on class for students to learn about creating custom shaped paper sculptures from armatures. Students will learn building methods for armatures and covering techniques for varied transparency effects. Students can bring sketches and simple wire structures or sewn ideas to work from. The sculptures will be small because of time constraints, but techniques and skills will be discussed for larger scale sculptures.
