Brief Description, Animal Sculpture 1-1

In this workshop you will be taught to create your very own ceramic animal sculpture. Using a combination of hollow forming and modelling sculptural techniques such as coiling, slab building and the use of armatures, supports and templates. As well as running through some basic drawing exercises and maquette making.

Your tutor Jack Durling will run through these methodically, step by step, for you to then use and inform your very own animal sculpture. Intermittently bringing the group round to demonstrate on his own piece.

You will be aiming to produce a freestanding or sitting animal. It is encouraged you work towards creating a piece of 30cm x 30cm max.

In this course you should walk away with further knowledge of techniques to hand build and utilise and inform a further understanding of sculpting in clay. With a piece that’s evolved from initial ideas and essentially encapsulates your chosen animal.

To book and for further information please read the course description.
