Stone Carving - Geometric Shapes - Experience at the Blended Monkey Studios - October 2025

Today's wonderful stone carving experience - geometric shapes - taught by our guest tutor and stone mason, Mark Evans, was another great success, with students creating beautiful geometric patterns in their large slabs of Portland stone.

Under Mark's expert eye, the students got to grips with how to use the chisels efficiently and to such great effect, as can be seen from the photos & videos below - everyone had a fab day and made some beautiful pieces!

If you missed out on this experience, we have more stone carving workshops scheduled with Mark for next year.
