You will design and create a detailed artwork, with our tutor India on hand to guide you as you carve, sand, detail & refine your artwork, offering tips & tricks to get it looking just how you imagined it. Whether you prefer our classic all-white style, or prefer a bolder choice such as a metallic finish, a bright shade, or a gentle wash of colour, when your masterpiece is finished you will be free to browse our selection of paints and experiment under India’s guidance until you find your ideal finish.
