Figure Sculpture with Rick Casali
July 9-11, 9:30-4:30pm, $325


This course is for painters and sculptors wishing to expand their knowledge of the human figure. Through demonstrations in clay, you’ll be given universal truths about the body regarding proportion, anatomy, and geometric construction. The head, torso, and appendages are sculpted methodically, highlighting the essential characteristics that make us human.

Knowledge in this field enables you to draw/sculpt figures out of your head and it will give your work more power and realism. This proven method relies on memorization and understanding, thus you are advised to keep a sketchbook during the week.
