Sculpt a portrait
In this portrait sculpting course, in addition to the proportions and their individual deviations, we will also cover the anatomical principles of the head and neck, possible degrees and the corresponding construction and presentation options.
We work according to models in an approximation to natural size. If you want, you can also work from your own photo templates (please announce in advance!). The goal is to create a resemblance to the model while creating a mold or hollow shape suitable for casting or firing.
*plus 20€ model money
Suitable for beginners and advanced users
Material:
drawing pad and pens for notes and an initial study of proportions,
an old newspaper, a masking tape, a large piece of cloth, a small and two large plastic bags, modeling tools. A water-resistant, perforated plate approx. 30 x 30 cm with an attachable 30-35 cm long round rod (wood or metal).
If you want to work from your own photo template, please make sure to print out the profile from both sides, the front view, the rear view and two slightly varying half-profile views.
If you want to take your work home on Sunday evening, please bring a transport box/large bag and soft packaging materials. Post-processing (final details or hollowing out) is also possible in the Akthof afterwards.
You can bring your own preferred clay. When using the clay provided in Akthof, the additional costs amount to approximately €20 - 30, -.
