Stone Carving Workshops 2006

Thank you for an excellent workshop. We had a lovely time and both have caught the bug. I have already been down to Fairhavens and persuaded the lads to find me a lump of Portland and a chunk of something they assure me is softer. Now we have to sort out some tools. Mark is determined to do something huge!

Best regards

Hi Rosemary & Bob

Many thanks for a really enjoyable weekend - it was great being outdoors all the time, and very satisfying to finally get my hands on some stone, which I've been meaning to do for a 2 or 3 years now. 

I really appreciated your input, for the design and techniques and pacing the work - there's just enough to fill the gaps which needed filling and not so much that I ever felt like I had been lectured at.

I will definitely have to look at the funds for a visit to Carrara

 Very best wishes

Andrew - Norfolk

Stone Carving Workshops 2005

Dear Rosemary and Bob,

I would like to thank you both for the very enjoyable stone carving course in July.

I was amazed by how much I was able to do in such a relatively short time and that was down to your excellent skills as teachers - providing enough direction and instruction to enable me to make steady progress but without being too intrusive.

Everyone has been impressed by my work, (including me) although my son did look at my flower piece, then gave me a searching stare before asking "Did you really do this?" Happily, I was able to tell him that I did!

Having had such a great introduction to stone carving I am definitely going to carry on with it. Thank you, once again, for making the weekend such a pleasant and rewarding experience.

With best wishes,

Ursula
