In this workshop we will sculpt a 2/3 size portrait in clay, using one of few example sculptural portraits made by Alexander.
This workshop is suitable for beginners.
The workshop goal is to learn the important structural elements needed to achieve likeness, the proportions of the face and head, and specific forms of the facial features and expressions.
This is a hands-on workshop, each student will be working on their own piece, from an example sculpture provided by Alexander – there will be a few to choose. Alternatively you can bring your own reference material, please discuss with tutors beforehand.
Teaching methods will include life demonstration and explanation, and individual feedback. In this workshop we will learn how to make a plaster mold and cast from the clay portrait.
