Adult Term Course
Lifeclass for Sculpture
Term 3 2016
Student Work, Margo Chinneck, Gemma and Child, Lifeclass, Plaster, Oxides
Come on a journey into the language of form from direct observation and learning via the life model. Each term is an investigation into the human landscape with a different life model. Simpson reveals and simplifies the mysteriousness of the figure, teaching the participant to see and emotionally connect to the subject and not to merely engage in copying.
You will be taught from the ground up armature building in relation to the rhythm and poetry of the human form, modelling techniques, casting techniques, finishing and patinas for your work. The life class is a continuous and revelatory reappraisal of the figure.
The participant has 6 weeks working from the model, and then 4 weeks for finishing and casting.
