Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this sculpture class:

Sculpt the figure in clay from live models. Models generally hold the same pose for three classes. Study the model, learning to see proportions, gesture, and anatomy as you work realistically or use the model as inspiration for more imaginative interpretative work. This class will use two specific stoneware clays with grog added for stability. Three or 4-week poses for models.

Please review the EAC's model etiquette.
