Upcycled Art Course: Quirky Birds

Make your original crazy critter from recyclables!



6 x 2 hours Class size 4 to 10     label $660

Join this sculpture class with a difference! We will take things that you might have considered ‘trash’ or ‘junk’ and make them into a creature with its own personality and ideas about who they want to be.

This course will cover:

  • Make an original artwork
  • Learn joining techniques and tips with a variety of materials
  • Understand balance and weight as key concepts in sculpture
  • Use two paint techniques to develop the surface and character of your critter
  • Add detail to make a cohesive image

You find that these characters give themselves a name at some stage, usually when you give them eyes. Sometimes they tell you have forgotten something - like wings or a crest. Sometimes they demand bling! It’s always fun to see how they see themselves.

Creative art classes for adults and children to express their own ideas in a safe, supportive environment. I believe that as humans creativity is in our DNA. I know that it improves mental well-being and feeds our soul.

Through a very dark period recently I found drawing and making Quirky Birds and Quirky Beauties made me smile. These characters arise from recyclables and found objects, telling me their stories as they develop. These larger-than-life personalities encourage me to be my authentic self. They tell their story (and mine) with such clarity.
