Sculpture in Ceramics, from life model
In this course you will explore the possibilities and limitations of clay: terracotta/white/crank/mixed body. You will do this through a variety of structured exercises based on direct observation from the life model. These will incorporate timed work (short poses), constructing/building in clay, anatomical studies (hands & feet) and working on longer poses over a period of weeks. You will gain a basic understanding of how to render proportion and will learn how to apply perspective. We will look at the revealing effects of light on surface texture (form) and how to convey a sense of movement, tension and emotional depth in the clay figure. You will learn through the process of making a series of clay studies; each encounter with the work you make and your subject of study will challenge you in a different way.
