What happens in this class?

This program will teach you how to create a figurative sculpture using a photographic reference.

This is a 1 week minimum to a 3 week maximum course. The work will be scaled at 1/4, and students might sculpt a torso or a full figure.

The focus of the course is centered on learning to grid, read, and translate two-dimensional shapes into 3-dimensional volumes as well as practicing observation skills and learning the underlying anatomical structure of the human body.

This is a fundamental technique that provides the sculptor with a great skill set.

Things to remember

Wear comfortable shoes and clothing, bring an apron or an old shirt you don't mind getting dirty, clay washes off but best not to wear your favorite clothing!

Tea- coffee, and fruit are provided!
