In the four-hour studio class Rachel Chang will teach beginning students the basics, and intermediate and advanced students how to further develop their skills while working in either water-based or oil-based clay. Class Instruction will be crucial in helping students develop their eye, intuition, and imagination.
Figurative or abstract, Rachel help you work from a drawing, photo photo references or your imagination as you work to sculpt your ideas into reality.
This class is also great for concept art, fans of comics, video games, toys or character design… bring your fantastical concept to life, designing and creating an original free-standing creature, character or animal.
Advanced students are able to create molds and cast their masterpieces with an additional materials list.
