There's something grounding about working with a stone in your hands. In this class, you'll slow down and turn a simple rock into a small piece of art, first by drawing and decorating its surface, then by wrapping it in wire or thread to bring out its shape and character. The result is part keepsake, part talisman, entirely yours.
We'll start with mark making: using fine pens, paint, and other tools to add patterns, line work, or imagery to your chosen stones. From there, we'll move into wrapping techniques, learning how to cradle a rock in wire or cord so it can hang as a pendant, anchor a display, or simply sit on your shelf as a reminder of an afternoon well spent.
All materials are provided, including stones, wire, cord, and drawing supplies, though you're welcome to bring a special rock of your own if there's one you've been holding onto. No experience needed. This is a relaxed, meditative class with plenty of room to experiment and make it your own.
Come work with your hands and leave with something small and meaningful, made in the light-filled space at Art Bloc.
All skill levels welcome. Materials included.
