Portrait Sculpture - Quincy Art Association

Portrait sculpture will begin Sunday, October 9, 2011 from 10 am to 1 pm for 6 Sundays. We will create a life size portrait likeness of our live model (which can be a friend of one of the enrolled artists...model to be paid $10 per hour). The procedure will be hands-on and systematic: armature building, planar head construction, bone and muscle anatomy of the head, choosing a pose and expression, details of sculpting features, individual creativity encouraged (unique expressions for each of the artists is possible). Over 20 pages of reference photos and information will be distributed and a CD of class progress will be available at the end of the course. Class fee is the same as figure sculpture, deadline and address the same but indicate ATTN: Portrait sculpture.
