Learning Sculpture: From Classicism to Abstraction.
Sculpture classes for amateurs or beginners. Starting with bas-relief and progressing to sculpture in the round. I offer classical or abstract training in contemporary art, allowing you to explore your imagination and/or create figurative figures.
The course is obviously based on your interests. If you're interested in learning practical sculpting techniques, such as figurative art, we'll focus on that. If you're more drawn to a more abstract form of expression, I'll guide you through your more fantastical ideas.
Once your pieces are made, we will think together about the best finishes, whether it be molding and casting in plaster, or ceramic firing of the work.
Your productions in progress will be protected and handled with care, and any production that passes the final molding or baking stage will belong to you; I will ask you to take them back when they are finished.
The figurative and abstract art courses offer different paths, which can obviously be combined to achieve an interesting middle ground. The figurative course provides busts and plaster casts from which to create models, allowing you to better understand the forms of the face, body, and volumes that make up the human being. Anatomical references will also be available as needed; for example, when working on the torso in modeling, I will present you with advanced anatomical references that you can keep.
The course on abstraction operates on another axis, freer, where it will be your ideas above all which will build your path, with technical help from me, advice and helping hands when you need it.
You can combine these two courses and I will gladly accompany you on this more mixed path.
Since sculpture is a medium that takes up space, your works should not exceed certain dimensions, which will be determined based on your desires and ambitions.
Materials are provided: clay, plaster, modeling tools, and other tools. The quantities of clay and plaster will vary depending on your artwork and the chosen method; this variation may affect the price. For example, a piece requiring 5-10 kilos of clay will be less expensive than one requiring twice that amount. Silicone molding may also incur higher costs.

Learning Sculpture: From Classicism to Abstract Art.
Sculpture classes for amateurs or beginners, starting with low relief and progressing to free-standing sculpture. I teach classical or abstract contemporary art, allowing you to explore your more abstract ideas, or the creation of figures and portraits.
The course is, of course, tailored to your interests. If you're focused on learning specific sculpting techniques in combination with figurative work—we'll concentrate on that. If you're more interested in a more abstract form of expression, I'll accompany you on your creative path.
Once your pieces are completed, we will discuss the best finishing options together, whether that involves casting in plaster or firing the work in a kiln.
Your works-in-progress will be protected and handled with care, and any piece that reaches the final stage of casting or firing will belong to you; I will ask you to collect them once they are finished.
The figurative course and the abstract course offer different paths, which can of course be combined to achieve an interesting middle ground. The figurative course provides busts and plaster casts, allowing you to better understand the shapes of the face, the body, and the volumes that make up the human form. Anatomy references will also be available to you as needed; for example, when working on the torso through modeling, I will provide you with good anatomical references that you can keep.
The course on abstraction takes a different, freer approach, where your technical ideas will be the primary focus in shaping your creative journey, with guidance from me, as well as advice and support whenever you need it.
You can, of course, combine these two courses, and I will be happy to guide you on this more mixed path.
Since sculpture is a medium that takes up space, your works must not exceed certain dimensions, which will depend on your desires and ambitions.
Materials are provided: clay, plaster, modeling tools, and other supplies. The amounts of clay and plaster will vary depending on your piece and the path you choose; this variation may result in price changes, eg, a piece requiring 5–10 kilograms of clay will be less expensive than one requiring twice that amount. Silicone molding may also incur higher costs.
