Work from a model and using clay learn how to hand sculpt a hollow ceramic bust. During this 5 week course you will be taught the foundations of building a three-dimensional form, and explore anatomy, gesture, and expression to bring your sculpture to life. We don’t fire the finished here at Exeter Phoenix but your tutor will be able to advice on next steps if this is something you would like to follow up.
Sarah is a practising ceramics and fine artist and is a regular tutor at Exeter Phoenix. Observation of human and natural form (in both 2D and 3D media) has remained central to her interests. Sarah focuses on learning ‘ways to see’, that are key for expressing the world of form around us, and on sharing skills and techniques in an informal atmosphere, which bring out the best creative ideas.
