The Geraldton Fishermen's Co-operative Blessing of the Fleet 2008
SEA ART SCULPTURES
Supported by Country Arts WA
Artist in Residence, Graham Hay ( www.grahamhay.com.au )

The LIFE size Sea Art Sculpture classes have begun. The vibe surrounding this one off opportunity supported by Country Arts WA is more than interesting with a touch of the WOW factor added. Unique paper clay sculptures are being designed and created by local resident artists, teachers and students alike. To follow this amazing journey please hit the link below and enjoy our informative and pictorial journey from the delivery of the 1 ½ tons of paperclay to Geraldton to the creation of Sea Art Sculptures, that will adorn the Geraldton Fishermen’s Wharf for the Blessing of the Fleet, Sunday 26th October 2008.

Over a dozen locals will use 165 bags of paperclay in six weeks to create stunning and up to 2 meter high, oven fired and unfired paperclay Sea Art Sculptures. This amazing course will allow many students the ability to be self indulgent in their artistic ability as materials have been supplied and with a Resident Sculptor of Graham Hays calibre can only lead the way to great creativity. Participants in the workshop include local ceramists and non clay artists, plus TAFE art staff and students.
