Ceramics - 3D sculpture - Part-time

Working from a live sitter, you will explore the structure, proportions, and expressive qualities of the human face while learning essential hand-building and modelling techniques in clay. Throughout the course, you will be guided through the process of constructing a portrait sculpture, from initial observation and form-building to refining surface details and capturing character and likeness. Students will gain a deeper understanding of three-dimensional form, anatomy, and sculptural making while developing their confidence in working with clay. All finished pieces will be professionally fired and completed with a suitable ceramic finish.

This course has two start dates:

• 12th January
