Using the traditional techniques of the sculptor and stonemason, methods of transferring ideas onto a block and finding form within it will be discovered, and the aim is to complete a sculpture and return home with a finished piece.

Course Sculpting the Head
"This is my second visit to Simon and Anna (previously stone) and I cannot commend or recommend these courses highly enough. The whole process was hugely, monstrously enjoyable - a total immersive creative experience. This comes with, if you haven't done the course or this work before, a surprising excitement and adrenaline 'buzz' as you develop your work. Simon tutors you through the sculpting challenge with a style subtly tailored to your needs at that time, and the whole course is relaxed, friendly and great fun. His style is directional when required but observational and supportive to allow you the necessary time to learn from your close observation of the subject and your inevitable need to refine your work. All this is married to a location which is beautiful, relaxed and inspiring, and Anna's superb food and generous hospitality. Finally, and I think this is very, very valuable - you leave the course with an indelible imprint of Simon's enthusiasm and real encouragement to continue practising and developing when you return home".
