Willow Fox Sculpture 2 day course with Joe Gregory – on Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th January 2025

Time: 10.30am-4.30pm price: £190

I’m pleased to share with you my first 2 day willow sculpture workshop.

I first trialed this fox sculpture a few years ago as a one day workshop but I wasn’t happy with the results. The workshop felt rushed and there wasn’t time for students to work things out on their own without lots of tweaking from me. As anyone who has been on a workshop with me will tell you weaving is a slow process, mediative and calming, over one day this was not calming!

It takes me a day to make one of these beauties and it’s a really enjoyable experience, foxs have such a great shape for weaving with willow. So I’ve bitten the bullet and decided to run a 2 day sculpture workshop. I run plenty of 2 day basket workshops, never a sculpture, until now that is: )

This beautiful, iconic British woodland fox sculpture will teach you everything you need to know to make many more sculptures if you so wish and over 2 days you’ll learn lots of sculpture techniques, create something that is truely yours and something to be proud of.

Using the finest English Willows you will learn sculpture techniques that I have been fine tuning for over a decade. These fine foxes look fabulous in the garden and treated with wood preservative will last many years.

Learn to weave. Suitable for beginners and those with some weaving experience a lovely way to spend a couple of days. Come alone and meet other crafty folk or come with a friend or two for a special time together.

The Willows tea and coffee house on the ground floor of the building will keep you topped up during the day with the finest rainforest alliance coffees and teas, locally made cakes and simple savouries of you desire.

Notes:

No prior experience needed but you must have good mobility in hands & feet & be able to stand whilst working.

Please wear old (non dangly) clothes, covered toe shoes (no sandals) & little or no jewellry.
