Workshops in July 

Everyone has their own level of skill. Some are wonderful from the moment they touch their craft tools. Some need years of practice like me.

For this reason, I will be conducting 2 different levels or workshops.

Beginners can try their hand at a mixed bag of designs which will help you understand what type of work you enjoy the most. The below images shows the various designs you will learn.

This basic workshop is happening on the 12th of July 2015.

Miniature food inspired designs

Those who have already tried their hand at miniatures and want to experiment with a more complex, patience including design can join the advanced class where we will work on 9 different designs. You will also get an upcycled showcase  to display your pieces as part of the kit.

The advanced class is scheduled for the 18 th of July 2015

Mini-Food sculpting Workshop at Sri Kumarans

imageSo my first workshop for a young crowd went a million times better than I expected. I only hope they thought so too!

Key highlights of the class

The group of 15 students kept me on my toes for the entire 4 hour session which flew past too quickly.

The enthusiastic bunch managed to teach me a thing or two as well 🙂

The session was primarily for mini-Indian food sculpting. We created 5 south Indian breakfast dishesimageThe kids had a tough time choosing the designs they wished to create. Each one had their own variation of the designs at the end of the class adding a variety to the normal designs I usually teach.

A few impromptu videos I prepared last week were kept looping in the background and enabled the students to create their designs with very little intervention from me.

All in all, I think I managed to create a classroom full of happy crafters and admiring teachers!

And for the first time I was called “Aruna ma’am” 🙂 A huge feeling of accomplishment!

Workshops and preparations…

The main thing consuming me right now is DIY Workshops at World o’ Cerámica.

Since I do not have the easy excuse of the so-called “stage fear” anymore, how can I refuse a Workshopworkshop to a large audience? Kids this time!

Am I freaked out? Of course!!!

Kids demand honesty! You cannot bluff your way through just giving them any answer. Because they listen! They remember!

Unlike adults, they motive is just to learn what is being taught.

We will see how it goes. Scheduled for this Saturday, provided my work generates enough interest.
