Sculpting the human figure from a live model, this 12-week course will dive deep into the Anatomy. We will work from diagrams, master drawings, and photographic references to compare and apply to our study. 60 hours it´s just enough time to gain a more solid understanding of human anatomy.
This course is recommended for both traditional and digital artists, as it provides the opportunity to analyse the volumes, structure and geometry of the body, understanding the relationship between the different parts. With a live model posing we have a unique opportunity to study in an authentic and time-honoured learning process. We will work on a 1:3 scale (almost 750mm high) a generous size providing the opportunity to work more freely.
Modelling stand, armature and all materials are supplied. Please bring your own modelling tools. If you don´t already have tools, I recommend a set of cheap wooden spatulas for sculpting and pottery which can be found in any art shop. You should be able to work with these most of the time.
A suggestion for those who are keen to study the human figure, would be to combine this course with further practice. Fortunately, if you are not aware of it already, you should know Wellington is one of the most artistically active places in the world, no kidding. In this town, you can find an open live drawing session almost every day of the week. And on top of that, there is a live sculpting session on Saturdays in Javier’s studio. This landscape plus the great enthusiasm of the studios making it possible, provides a generous opportunity for those wanting to learn more and needing models to practice.
