Yesterday's two half-day clay sculpture workshops, taught by our guest tutor, Christine Pike, were attended by two lovely groups of students.
The morning saw our participants making flower blossom tiles - a really relaxing & mindful experience and each tile looks amazing!
In the afternoon session, our next group of students enjoyed learning how to sculpt a cute "lazy hare". They all made lovely little creatures with different facial expressions and stances.
The pieces will now dry here in the Blended Monkey ceramics studio, and then they'll be fired and glazed in the colours chosen by each student.

​​​​The next workshop with our guest tutor & figurative sculptor, Christine Pike, is our full-day large contemporary hare sculpture experience on 19 January - check it out HERE
REVIEWS
"I had a great time yesterday thank you very much indeed.Â
I wasn’t too sure what to expect but it was really relaxed & friendly and the other ladies that joined were all very approachable. It was a nice environment even though the weather was awful !! Â
I would definitely like to come back to do another class with Christine who I thought was incredibly down to earth and very talented. Â She was regally easy to talk to."

"It was a lovely session. Greatly enjoyed the afternoon, surroundings, tea and goodies wonderful. Felt relaxed and informal.Â
Christine is a great tutor. Nice blend of showing/telling/helping but resisting the temptation to do "for" us, even though I am not good at this stuff!! :-)
And she must have felt tempted!! But she ensured I got an OK piece at the end."

"I really enjoyed the lazy hare sculpture day!Â
The studio felt really cosy despite the hideous weather, the size of the class was perfect & Christine was great at demonstrating the techniques & enabling us to personalise our creations! Thank you so much again, will definitely book another workshop for next year."

"My family booked the tile blossom class for our Christmas presents and so glad we did! It was an amazing day altogether, very fun and creative. We are so happy with the outcomes of all of our tiles even though we had never done this before, the teacher made everything easy to understand and a good sense of humour too. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking about it, can't wait to rebook!"
