CLAY – SUMMER SESSION 4
June 30-July 12, 2024 (11 STUDIO DAYS)
Lindsay Pichaske
Heads with Exquisite Surfaces

In this figurative sculpture workshop, students will sculpt animal or human heads with rich surfaces. We will explore the ways both pigmented clay and mixed-media additions can contribute to the texture, content, and personality of a face. Demonstrations will include solid sculpting and hollowing, rendering facial features, anatomical sculpting techniques, and surface development. While the focus will be on clay textures, the workshop will include testing and mixing our own pigmented clays, making test tiles, and experimenting with mixed-media materials. Low to mid-range electric firing. All levels. Upper clay studio.
