Intro to Paper Mache


Have you ever wanted to try paper mâché but did not know quite where to begin? (You know you have!) Would you like to learn the skills necessary to achieve basic forms and durable surface treatments? In this two-session workshop on October 19 and 26 from 2 until 4 pm, Jen Costello will guide you in exploring paper mâché as a sculpture medium. Well known for her large, colorful and often whimsical wall and free-standing sculptures, Jen will guide students step by step in creating a (seasonally appropriate!) paper mâché pumpkin.

At the first session, develop the basic form with a paper armature then continue to build and sculpt by applying the paper mâché. At the second meeting you will finish surface details then paint and seal.

Workshop fee of $35 includes all tools and supplies.
