Portrait SculptingFigurative Sculpture
with
Philippe Faraut


November 7,8,9 2008
 at Clay Planet

Three days with a master sculptor!


This portrait class include lectures on anatomy, emphasizing bone structure and discussions on expression and ethnic differences. 

Three full days of intensive work are spent sculpting a head in water-based smooth sculpting clay with step-by-step instruction.

Due to small class size, individuals receive plenty of one to one instruction, while still being encouraged to explore their own styles. 

Live models will be used during the second and third days of class. Previous students range from beginners to professional artists. All materials are provided for use during the seminar, but feel free to bring your favorite sculpting tools. 

Cost for the three-day seminar is $475. 
Spaces are limited, so sign up early!

Call 408-295-3352 to reserve your space. 
Spaces are non-refundable after October 15th.
