About this Event
ETL x Teresa Hunyadi!
What do expect
In this workshop, you’ll explore the art of carving miniature sculptures, inspired by the natural growth and joints found in wood. Plenty of examples will be provided to guide and inspire you. With knives and small gouges in hand, you’ll shape, refine, and let each twig’s character lead the way. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to deepen your skills, you’ll leave with new techniques, fresh ideas, and carvings that are uniquely yours.
The course is open to anyone with an interest in wood carving. You are welcome to attend one or both evenings, as the content is tailored to the skills and wishes of each participant.
Booking page for the other date here.
This workshop provides a calm and relaxed atmosphere, where the quiet, dust-free environment invites focus, creativity, and a gentle pace of making.
Led by Teresa Hunyadi, a wood sculptor with a strong focus on sustainability. Teresa studied wood carving in Austria and Japan over a decade ago and now teaches at universities in Scotland and the Netherlands. Her work includes representational and abstract elements, predominantly created with hand tools in wood, valuing each piece for its own character as a living material. www.teresahunyadi.com, @teresahunyadi
