Art Academy

Simon enjoys teaching on his 'Introduction to stone carving'course at the Art academy in Southwark, London. He attracts ambitious students on his evening course there. With his help, his students are able to carry out their ideas. Students are encouraged to study their subject before carving,with sketches and a clay model.

Using the model, the student is shown where to proceed on the stone carving
