In our class, we will complete 6 poses from a model, three full figure, one torso and one portrait, with additional assignments to include sculpting Facial Features (Eyes, Ear, Nose, Mouth). The final assignment will offer the opportunity to be more creative and to decide on personal references. Some of these assignments will have the option to preserve and save the artwork, while some of these are intended to be exercises that will be torn down before the start of the next pose. The figure will be featured, to teach concepts of proportion, balance, gesture, anatomy and structure. The benefit of studying sculpture, gives an understanding of 3-dimentional form, space, and volume.
