Introduction:
This 3 day workshop is a perfect introduction to sculpting in clay. You will produce a life size bust from life.
Over the weekend you will learn everything you need to know to create a sculpture; armature construction, clay modelling, anatomy, measuring & how to prepare for firing.
Stephanie trained in classical sculpture at City & Guilds Art School, she has 30 years experience working as a commercial sculptor and tutor.
This course is suitable for all ability levels, there is a maximum of 8 students. All tools, materials and refreshments are provided, however be aware you will be taking your portraits home with you!.
Cost:
£360 for the 3 days
Times:
Friday 7th, Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June from 10 - 5 pm
Note:
Because of time constraints your work will not be fired at the workshop. I will explain how to prepare your portrait for firing at home or in a ceramics workshop and how to find a kiln near you.
I suggest you bring a large plastic box with weights to transport your portrait bust
