Sculpture: Figures / Animals

Led by Maria Chernyak Belenky

Join us for a series of one day sculpture workshops designed for both beginners and experienced artists. Each session provides an in depth exploration of sculpting techniques, encouraging creative expression through form, texture, and composition.

In this hands-on workshop, you'll sculpt both animals and human figures from a solid block of clay. You'll explore various sculpting techniques while following the complete ceramic process, developing key skills such as shaping, joining, cutting, scooping, and applying textures to create unique surfaces. Experimenting with form and proportion will bring expression and dynamism to your work. You'll also learn how to prepare your pieces for firing.

You are encouraged to bring reference images for inspiration. Finished pieces will be fired and ready for collection in approximately four weeks.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and advanced students.

All materials and firing are included in the price.
