Learn to build forms, prepare sand mix concrete, sculpt and hand carve in the soft matrix in this wet-carved concrete workshop. No power tools or hammer and chisel are required. Students will be given a working understanding of Portland cement and the variety of possibilities the technique offers. Choose to make either a planter or sculpture of about 25 lbs. By the end of the carving day everyone will have completed their piece short of it having sit overnight to cure before handling.

Elder was thoughtful, funny, kind, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. I really appreciated his positive outlook on everything. He also didn't feel the need to pretend like he knew everything which was not only refreshing but also very telling about working with concrete since there are so many variables.
