Using all the same products as we do on our in-person Sculpture Workshops, this kit allows you to make a large (75cm depending on ear pose) moon gazing / looking forward or back hare.  This may look daunting as it's quite large - but it tends to be less fliddly than a smaller hare - honestly ;-) 
 
You can make the hare over 3-4 sessions as there are distinct individual stages that are clearly explained in both written instructions and the full on-line Video which can be viewed as many times as you like.  On our one day workshop, delegates who 'go for it' manage the whole process within the day (see photos on the one day workshop page), however we recommend you take a little more time and spread the fun over at least a couple of days.
 
Jo handmakes each hare armature 'body' out of a steel base (which acts as a stabiliser in windy weather!) and 8.5 mtrs of aluminium wire.  This is ready for you to create your own personal hare 'pose' by easily bending the ears, head, legs and tail.  Your hare can be 'moon gazing', looking back, to the front, scratching it's ear - or any other pose in a sitting position! The detailed instructions show you how to do this. You will then add aluminium foil to build the body of the hare as shown in the video.  You then add a layer of plaster bandage, and finally a layer of specialist outdoor plaster.  Once this is dry, you paint your hare sculpture, then rub on a fabulous gilt finish which brings your hare 'to life'!
 
The kit contains everything you need including a small glass vial for you to include a message or memento in the heart of your hare.
 
Although not essential, there is an option to purchase a 30cm heavy duty turntable (£15).  This is the same product as we use in our workshops and allows effortless manipulation of the sculpture as you are working on it.  The turntable is very durable and will go on to be useful for future projects.  You can see the turntable under the main photo of the large bronze coloured hare.  Please select 'no turntable' or '30cm turntable'.
 
Full written instructions with photos are included as well as a link to a detailed video showing Jo creating a large bronze hare, providing step-by-step instruction, hints & tips.  The kit includes a 30mtr roll of foil.  You may need to supplement this with more foil if you make a 'chunky' hare 😀. 
 
Please note, the kit contains sharp items and products unsuitable for young children. 
 
The delivery box is large and weighs about 7 kilos.  P&P is £10 and contact details may be shared with deliverer.
