Soapstone Carving: Native Flora and Fauna

Well known for its beautiful colouring and silky texture, soapstone is soft and easy to carve. 

This workshop offers students the carving experience without requiring the use of mallets or chisels. After selecting a piece of soapstone, you will be guided in the use of hand tools, mostly rasps and files, to discover the sculpture within. The final step, is polishing to reveal the beautiful hues and textures within the stone. 

Cost $145 plus $40 for soapstone.
