Create your own Jesmonite coaster with artist and maker Kim Searle using a variety of geometric and recycled moulds.
Jesmonite is a versatile material that will create a different result every time. In this session, you'll learn how to weigh it, mix it, and add colours and textural effects. Coasters can be made with pale pastels or vibrant shades, block colours or fantastic marbled or terrazzo effects. You’ll get to try a type of Jesmonite that sets in a variety of styles and will be ready to take away with you by the end of the session.
All materials are provided. No experience necessary.
