Most of the courses Sara offers are in sculpture.  Unlike a craft such as basketry, which follow a prescribed method, in these courses you will learn Sara’s unique style of willow sculpture. She will guide you through her own unique techniques for developing layers of shape & form through a combination of binding, stitching and weaving processes. 

Warning! While most people find this to be mindful and relaxing to learn it can be quite a tiring day. It is quite physical and a little hard on your hands. Please understand that I condense the very basics of willow sculpture into a one or two day course where, with support, you will create a beautiful finished piece. For more advanced tuition and to gain a deeper understanding of willow sculpture as an artform please feel free to contact me about one-to-one courses. 

One, two and half day courses run throughout the year which are suitable for complete beginners as well as experienced artists and crafters.

An informal and relaxed atmosphere in a picturesque setting, students can spend an enjoyable time creating their very own willow sculpture. Each workshop is carefully designed for small exclusive groups to ensure maximum individual attention.

Armatures and materials are prepared and supplied.  Plenty of teas/coffees and refreshments are included as well as a vegetarian lunch for full day and two day courses.

If you would like to organise a bespoke workshop for a group or event please get in touch.
