Tutor Profile

Gillian Elmslie is a sculptress - producing original artworks for over 25 years from her studio in Herne Bay Auckland... She is regularly teaching soft stone sculpture: One of her strengths is to get people to produce pleasing results with minimum prior experience. Her students often arrive at workshops not knowing what to expect, but after an hour laughter is heard and at the end of the day, every person has a work to carry home. Her work is collected and enjoyed by gardeners and lovers of beautiful form. Gillian has agreed to visit Melbourne to share her method and medium with you so that you can express your ideas in this flexible and accesible material.
