Dec 13th for Santa by Samantha Welch

Santa dropped into our last class for the year. It was a quick class as we all gave Santa a hand with some present wrapping and sleigh greasing in preparation for the upcoming delivery season.
See you all soon when it will be time to get serious over the summer break with our summer schools.

Welcome by Samantha Welch

Welcome to Myocum School of Sculpture. We are off and away with our first sculpture course and its so exciting. My good friend and Master Sculptor DAMIEN LUCAS has joined me along with 10 students and classes are just too much fun.

First class getting into it with Damien giving particular tuition

I always knew that a good sculpture school needs perfect surrounds to bring the most out of the student / teacher interaction. By the way things are going well here, I think we have achieved a great environment for sculpture… great amenities set in a beautiful 5 acre private garden with north views to Mount Warning and the rolling hinterland of Byron Bay all around.
