Creating scale models before building a piece of furniture or sculpture is invaluable (not to mention adorable!) for the success of a project. It can be creatively liberating, economical, and ecologically sound. In this class we'll discuss why that is and jump into the practice of making them.

Included will be an introduction to architectural rulers and drawing accurately to scale. Sarah will then demo various techniques and tricks to making successful scale models. A range of techniques will be shared so people with and without machine access can feel comfortable making their own. Participants will spend most of the class building their own models. Students are encourage to bring sketches of work they are interested in making. Models are low risk, high reward, so don't be afraid to get weird!

All tools and materials are included. Class size is limited to 12 students.

There is no lunch break during this class, but students are welcome to bring food and drinks for themselves.
