Class Description

Description

Our approach is based around close observation from life, and an emphasis on anatomical structure and form relationships. Studying form relationships in the portrait and/or figure will inform students on how to think three-dimensionally, judging likeness with volume and mass, and learning to read depth.

We will cover basic “block-in” technique, learning how to accurately establish the large relationships of the portrait and/or figure, before moving on to modeling and finishing techniques for clay.

The class will include sculpting demonstration, constructive critiques, and lecture. No experience is necessary, teaching will be tailored to individuals.
