In this experimental course you will learn the various steps to making your own bas relief flower & nature plaster cast tiles.

The course will cover rolling out the clay, designing and arranging the flowers and creating your own mould for the casting process.  You will be using different shaped frames to create a selection of plaques.

There will be flowers and foliage for you to choose from however, bringing a very small bunch of flowers/herbs/leaves/wildflowers/grasses of your choice from your own garden, means you can make a cast specific to you.

Over the course of the day you will make a range of small tiles to take home.

Please note there is a £10 material charge payable on the day.

What to expect

Time at ArtisOn is designed to take you away from it all. We provide the environment, the time and the guidance you need to create. You can expect a warm welcome, skilled and friendly tutors and the chance to meet like-minded people keen to share ideas. You can even leave us to clear up the mess! There will usually be two workshops going on and we encourage everyone to mingle and be nosey about what the other workshop is up to.

We encourage you to arrive at 9.30am. This will allow time to meet other participants over a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits before beginning workshops at 10am. There will be a mid-morning break for refreshments and a chance to talk over progress with others. Lunch is usually around 12:45 for about 45 mins – you can expect a delicious homemade 2 course lunch. There will be a further afternoon break with tea or coffee and cake. All food and refreshments are included in the price of your workshop.

The finish time given is a target. There are occasions when the session may overrun so do let us know if you need to be away promptly.

We aim for your day to be a real treat. You could always learn a new skill in a shed or a draughty village hall with a curly sandwich, but we want you to have more fun than that! So we make sure we provide a day where you will be looked after, with good food, good company and great inspiration!

What you’ll need to bring with you

Please bring an apron and wear clothes that you don't mind getting messy.

Some foliage will be available but please bring a very small bunch of flowers/herbs/leaves/wildflowers/grasses of your choice.
