Figurine Workshop with Monte Lupo

Dive into a creative adventure with the Figurine Workshop with Monte Lupo! This engaging two-part workshop is perfect for all levels of experience and will guide you through the process of sculpting and decorating your unique figurine.

Session 1: 3 hours - Sculpting

In the first session, you'll spend three hours sculpting. You'll be provided with a wheel-thrown bottle shape as your base, ready for your creative touch. Add a head, arms, hair, and any other embellishments to give your figurine its unique personality. By the end of this session, you'll have a sculpture that's at least 30cm tall, brimming with character and flair.

Session 2: 3 hours - Decorating

The second session is all about decoration. You'll spend three hours painting your sculpture with vibrant underglaze colors on greenware. Let your imagination run wild as you bring your figurine to life with color and intricate designs.

After the workshop, your masterpiece will be taken back to Brisbane for firing by our skilled team at Monte Lupo Studio. Your finished sculpture will be ready for collection about two weeks later, ensuring it's perfectly fired and ready to take pride of place in your home.

Join us for this fun and enriching experience and create a figurine that’s uniquely yours with Monte Lupo!
