Portrait Sculpture
Instructor 
Tuesday: Evenings 6:30-9:30pm
Just under the surface of the skin lies the skull. Many of the unique and distinctive features you observe are created by its form. The arrangement of the muscles of the face both reveal and hide the form of the skull beneath, and the action of these muscles can exhibit the full range of human emotion.
Recognizing skeletal features in the living model, and the understanding of the muscular action that creates emotional expression is an immense help to artists of all kinds who choose the portrait as their subject.
This class will equip students with an in-depth understanding of the bone and muscular structure of the head by working from the inside out: first contructing a skull, and then learning and sculpting the important muscle groupings that contribute both form and function to a portrait sculpture.
Class size is limited to 12 students, to insure a high quality learning environment
