Wooden Spoon Carving

Who needs to buy utensils if you can make your own? The course will cover the whole process of carving a useable spoon in wet or ‘green’ wood from harvesting the timber in a sustainable way. Each student will learn basic spoon-carving techniques with the axe and knives, and should complete at least one finished spoon which will need to dry before use.

This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some carving experience.

A light lunch, refreshments and all materials are included in the workshop fee.

Chinese Brush Painting Tea Caddies

Antique caddies come in all shapes and sizes. The shapes can range from grand urns and chests to a simple everyday square box. Hand painted, the surface of the caddy lends itself to highly intricate or simple design. This makes the caddy both functional and decorative.

On today's course we will take our inspiration from old caddies and paintings from the recent Samuria exhibition at the British Museum. I look forward to sharing the day together.

This workshop is suitable for all skill levels, from complete beginners to those who have attended lots of Leo’s workshops before.

A light lunch, refreshments and all materials are included in the workshop fee.
