Sculpting Classes with Carole Murphy
Classes are held at Carole’s studio at 1404 SE Stark, Portland, 97214. This class is a great place to begin to explore sculpting or to
expand professionally. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and play clothes. It's my job to bring out the creative in you and it
is your job to relax, play and let the stress and bothers of life float away. You'll be sculpting in an atmosphere that invites
laughter and lightness of being and at the same time fosters your creative juices.
The media you will be carving in is considered a 'green' building material that begs to be carved; it’s a form of aerated cement.
The blocks are available for purchase ($25 for a full block) and the tools, patina materials and other sculpting supplies are readily
available and included in the class price, (eight weeks of classes, $200.). (There is a sliding scale for those who are looking for
a job or have other financial difficulties, just email me.) (Classes that are all ready running will continue.)
