Victorian Woodworks artist, James Foster (alias The Pole People man!) is back by popular demand at Methven Summer School and we are excited by his two day course. Day one will see you turn a piece of clothing into an iconic petrified garden sculpture, could be a favourite pair of jeans that no longer fit, your worn out hunting ‘swani’ or, a favourite jumper that is no longer in fashion! Next, you will embark on making ‘Barberry Sheep’ learning lots of new skill on the way so you can use your creative ideas on Day 2 creating your own iconic pieces of garden art! James will have lots of ideas for you in Day 2 from corrugated iron clothes for a washing line, shadow box for those old rusty tools you have in your back shed, to steel garden sculptures using iron rods and learning to bend and weld them together. Check out James’ website www.victorianwoodworks.co.nz and if you are going past call in and see him at 94 Arundel Rangitata Rd Geraldine. This course is a must for gardening enthusiast and anyone who loves making things out of junk! Limited to just 10 people, all materials supplied except piece of clothing and old tools if you are making a shadow box.
What to bring – heavy duty gloves (a must), old piece of clothing, safety glasses, tin snips and anything you want to turn into art!

James Foster - Victorian Wood Works

James Foster, also known as the Poleman from Geraldine, has been working with wood in various ways for over forty years. As a young man he trained as a cabinet maker and then become a builder for many years, with his own company.
The main stay of the business is now garden art and children's toys, designed for the individual. From this, the Pole People have developed.
James is a skilled woodworker and his products reflect his flair for eye-catching design, enthusiasm and sense of humour. James enjoys a challenge and will make anything, from your ideas or his, to suit your needs.
The types of products that James makes almost defies classification, but we've done it anyway!
