During the session

You work on a poured panel while the plaster is still green, which is the only window in which it cuts cleanly. The pattern is pounced on from a paper stencil, so you're not drawing, you're cutting: a few chisels, several depths, and a lot of blowing dust out of the way.

At the end

Three hours gets you a finished panel, and you keep it. Plaster stays fragile until it has dried right out, so it wants careful handling for the first day. Bring a scarf if you'd rather not breathe plaster dust.
