I recently spent a week in Portland on a carving course, which was an experience that I would recommend to anyone who has not been. In fact it prompted me to change my life which has resulted in me moving to Australia. I was wondering if anyone was aware of any short course/evening classes, in the Melbourne area of Australia ideally, or if there was an association/organisation which it might be worth my while contacting with regard to carving stone in Australia. As I have my own tools, I am also on the lookout for stone suppliers, and any recommendations of types of stone which would come close to the quality and properties of Portland stone.
