This workshop will address methods of casting and building using Aqua Resin. This non-toxic, environmentally green, lightweight but durable compound material can be used in sculpture, painting, installation and crafts. All materials will be provided. The class will cover the basics of: pattern making, mold making, mixing ratios, foam-coating, joining of disparate parts, and the painting/patina of finished work.
