Plaster Relief Sculpting
Join Rebecca Gilling for an extended lime plaster relief sculpture demonstration on Friday afternoon. Please feel free to drop in anytime between 1-4pm and see Rebecca working on a live project at 2075 Upland Ave. in Boulder, CO. Note this is the “front” property adjacent to the Straw & Adobe Cottage on the home tour. Stay for as little or as long as you like. You will have the opportunity to ask questions about the process and watch the sculpture develop. The lime-based work will be installed on an existing cement stucco exterior wall.
