A UK sculptor teaching Nepalese girl trafficking victims

This afternoon Bev and I went to visit our latest British volunteer, sculptor Rebecca Hawkins (www.rebeccahawkinssculpture.co.uk/currentProjects/projects.php) who has just last week joined the art workshop for former circus girls. While men outside the building continued constructing a kiln, we found Rebecca introducing the girls to the basics of form, through teaching still life techniques. The girls were all sitting around a central display so that each had a different perspective and could therefore not copy one another - copying being a Nepali trait.

Rebecca will be with us until April and during that time we hope to overlap mosaic and sculpture techniques - literally adding another dimension to our work!
