About the Workshop
Bring a face to life in clay!
In this intermediate-to-advanced class, explore the fundamentals of sculpting the human head through hands-on demonstrations and guided studio time, with a focus on observation, proportion, anatomy, and expressive form. Participants should have prior experience working with clay and basic hand-building or sculpting techniques; this class will build on those skills while encouraging personal narrative and creative expression.
This workshop is 2+ full days over the weekend of November 7 & 8. The workshop begins at 9am and with a break around 12noon for lunch and finish each day at 5pm. A third day for glazing will be December 1, 2026 from 6-8 PM. The cost of the workshop includes all materials and tools. Participants may bring their personal tools if they wish.
