Figure Sculpture Workshop |
This three day course is for painters and sculptors wishing to expand their knowledge of the human figure. Through demonstrations in clay, students will be given universal truths about the body regarding proportion, anatomy, and geometric construction. The head, torso, and appendages will be sculpted methodically, highlighting the essential characteristics that make us human. Knowledge in this field will enable you to draw/sculpt figures out of your head and it will give your work from life more power and realism. This proven method relies on memorization and understanding, thus students are advised to keep a sketchbook during the week. Model fee TBA. Click here for materials list. |
