After teaching these classes for a number of years Kevin Free retired at the end of 2008, which is sad for his many fans, BUT, before retiring he recommended Jenny to take over these classes. Jenny has a bright personality & loves to share her love of sculpting. She has now developed her own following, with many of her classes selling out.
Jenny is sculptor who works in many types of stone and specialises in figurative works. She has taken part in number of hands-on sculpture symposia, exhibited her work for which she has won awards. For more about Jenny, click here.

And Here's some feedback:
Hi Jenny
I did your workshop on Saturday and had a great time. ( I made the female body figure )
I came home like a prep child waving my creation to everyone feeling very proud of myself.
I cant wait to do another one
My husband loved it too and is dying to get me some more stone.
Could you please tell me the name of the sealer I need to finish my sculpture as I forgot to write it down.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to wet my creative juices again
Kind regards
And thank you again
Jennifer
I’m not a particularly creative person and have never done anything artistic like drawing or painting, so this was a whole new world for me – and I absolutely loved it!! I went with a couple of friends and we all had such a fantastic day. Jenny was so helpful, informative and understanding and there was absolutely no pressure by either Jenny or my classmates to come up with anything arty or spectacular, I just did what I felt comfortable doing. And the best part was that it gave me loads of confidence and I now have lots of my own ideas and I can’t wait to do another class!
Thanks again Jenny, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day which I would recommend to EVERYONE!
Cheers

"Jenny, you are a miracle worker!! I attended your fabulous limestone class last Sunday, and can't believe how much I enjoyed myself and what I was able to produce.
Even though i kept telling you I was not very creative, your calm persistent encouragement got me through, and my family are a little sceptical that I actually made it myself!
My sculpture has now found pride of place in our garden and gets lots of comments. Thankyou sooo much - I will see you again soon to do some Soapstone I think . . !!" (KP)
