Sharon Gainsburg has been teaching stone carving for over 22 years with great success to adults with no previous experience. Using a direct method approach Sharon begins her students with no pre-models, sketches or pre visualizations. The students go directly to the stone with a hammer and chisel. This direct method allows students to experience the creative process with less anxiety and better connect with the material and process.

Sharon teaches all aspects of stone carving including polishing technique and the use of power tools for the more advanced students on a private basis. After a student has completed their first piece, they can attempt to work from a clay model and create a form that is more representational.
