Beginners welcome.
Capture the dynamism of the human head and torso in clay. Over the course of this one day workshop two sculptures will be created that will later be fired.
From provided source material students will first create a head in clay and then a female torso. Instruction in facial proportions, anatomy, symmetry and the topography of the head will be covered with particular attention paid to the modelling of facial features such as eyes and nose.
A human torso will then be fabricated capturing the movement and mass of the female figure. We will consider proportion and anatomy to render a vital and dynamic figure.
The resultant works will be constructed hollow with a view to drying and firing the piece at a later date.
All tools, clay and firing are supplied and all levels of students are welcome.
