Creature Creations with Wade Boswell

**One ceramics workshop, spread out over 4 days!**

Instructed by Wade Boswell

**All ages welcome, but artists under 15yo must attend with a caregiver who is also registered for the workshop**

Let your imagination run wild as you sculpt creatures in this fabulous sculpting intensive. There is no right way (and no wrong way) to make a creature. Instead, create them completely from your imagination or based on images from different living animals, combined to make something monstrous! Without the pressure of getting it “right,” experiment with building solid, pinching, coiling, slab building and/or using armatures and other forms of support while building.
