Faces.  Is there anything we encounter in daily life more fascinating than faces?  Old, young, confident, shy, haunted, mysterious, happy, sad, beautiful, ugly … faces provide an almost endless source of inspiration and interest.  In August of 2011, you’ll have an opportunity to create your own fascinating faces as a student in sculptor Cheryl Dolby’s course, “Faces, Faces, Faces.”

Held at Cheryl’s hillside home, Woodloft, in Virginia’s beautiful Roanoke Valley the course will provide each student with the techniques and materials to create:
  • a tall, standing figure sculpted from clay and kiln-fired
  • choice of a  kiln-fired clay “face planter” or "burning bowl"
  • a personal journal of the week’s activities adorned with a sculpted  
          bas-relief face
  • a cloth doll with a face sculpted from non-firing clay

The course fee includes:
  • room and bed for seven days;
  • all food and beverages including  breakfast, lunch, dinner , and  snacks;
  • all instructor’s fees;
  • all art supplies, including clay, use of sculpting tools, and a large selection of embellishments to be used on finished creations;
