An ideal class for all those interested in learning to sculpt the human figure, as students get the opportunity to model in clay from life models for the full ten weeks. The first four weeks are spent modelling a full-figure, and the second four weeks are spent doing a portrait bust. Students should get a flavour of the challenges of both disciplines, and many come back term after term as they deepen their understanding of both. Beginners are welcome. The key areas covered are observational skills, clay modelling and preparation for firing.
