Here is the result of the Leaf Casting class that I told you about yesterday. It turned out great! And it was so much fun learning something new. We used sand to support the leaf and then used Thinset to mold it and finally Rapidset for the strength layer. After it set over night we peeled the leaf off and here it is! Now we have to wait for it to cure and then we can paint it. Can’t wait!

Yesterday I took the morning off to take a class in Flint Hill at Mullany Art Studio. They offer a variety of exciting classes and I have wanted to go to one forever but seems I am always working when they offer them. But when they offered the Concrete Leaf Casting I wanted to give it a try. Kerrie and Candace did a great job explaining the process.
Here are some photos from what we accomplished in class. We go back this afternoon to complete the process. It was great fun working in a different medium. Can’t wait to see how it turns out.
