Mask Making and Characters in Mixed Media Sculpture
For Beginner and Intermediate. Basic techniques for quick results.
These interactive art classes guide you through concept and creation of your own character: an archetype, a pet, an angel, or imaginary form. Learn basic techniques, then create form, define gesture, and enhance the personality of your muse. This is a versatile and forgiving process using basic materials: wire, dowels, cardboard, tape, layered paper and fabric to produce an amazingly rigid sculpture.

Student examples and comments
“Our small group, 2-day workshop with Chas was hands-on, productive and inspiring. We are all looking forward to taking an advanced class with Chas in the near future.” - Margo Makowicki, Seattle
“Chas’s sculpture class guided all of us - in spite of a wide range of experience with the medium (including my own zero experience!) - to expressive creations in 3D space, using a variety of materials. Knowledgeable, supportive, and friendly, Chas was able to help each of us find a path from wherever we started, to something interesting, unexpected, and creative." - Thomas V. Robertson, Vancouver
"Chas’s sculpture class was fun and I was amazed at what great works of art some of the group were able to accomplish in only 2 classes." - Cari Corbet-Owen, Vancouver
"Chas is a patient, generous and supportive teacher that helps translate complicated designs into 3D expressions. In our class of six, he was able to help both experienced and inexperienced sculptors express themselves in beautiful, creative pieces." - Jane Wolfe, Vancouver
