THE ART OF STONE CARVING
The very first time I picked up a hammer and chisel I knew that this fascinating medium would become my career — my passion has never wavered.
Classes, conducted in a group setting, yield
personal and individual instruction along with
group critiques and discussions that supplement
learning the art and craft of sculpting. As
sculptural skills become more finely tuned,
this gradual evolution allows the artist to see
more and to create more.
New arrivals are quickly made to feel welcome
and easily assimilate into this energetic sculptural
community. You do not need to know how to draw
that straight line — all you need is the desire and
willingness to open yourself up to the experience of creative expression.
Laura’s guidance is what sets the stage for the artistic voice. Read more
