Sculpting facial features is a fascinating and rewarding art form that allows you to be present and observant. This one day workshop with Black Woman Genius artist Murjoni Merriweather is specially crafted for anyone who wants to build a relaxing relationship with clay around some good company. Participants will learn the fundamentals of sculpting and develop the skills necessary to create three-dimensional representations of various facial features of their choice, such as eyes, noses, mouths, and ears from a block of clay.This workshop is designed for all levels of clayworking (even if you have never touched clay before). Murjoni Merriweather has over 10 years experience of sculpture and has so much patience in teaching others about clay. Murjoni wants to create a space for claymakers and clay admirers who want to learn more about sculpture. She is interested in making sculpture a peaceful place for people who are curious about it. She will provide step-by-step guidance, individualized feedback, and demonstrations to help participants achieve the best results in their sculpting journey. Space is limited.
