Sculpting from a cast is as valuable an experience as master copy drawing and is a requisite for improving your eye and hand, and a prerequisite for sculpting from the live model. Sculpting will transform your understanding of form and can radically improve your work from life.
In this three-day intensive you will work with Mike Magrath Director of the Magrath Sculpture Atelier to learn a reliable and solid method for sculpting. You will make a full-scale copy directly in clay from a plaster cast which will be yours to keep. This class will be a hybrid combination, with some participating in the classroom via signup, while others may attend remotely. Lectures and demonstrations will be recorded and available for asynchronous learning. Finished pieces may be fired at Gage when complete.
In this workshop we will focus on the HAND, an area where most of us can use a little extra support and practice. While seemingly complex, we will break the form into its constituent parts and overall structure using simple concepts applicable to all structural drawing and sculpture. Workshop will include hand anatomy lectures as well as sculpture demonstrations.
This workshop is accessible for all levels, though those with a drawing foundation will find they have many of the requisite skills. It is perfect for Atelier students who are looking for an introduction to and a solid grounding in sculpture.
