Hi Samantha
” … it really is such a wonderful atmosphere that’s been created in that busy little studio, and it was great to finally share a little of it again!
david and cathie-anne are close to finishing modelling, to begin mould-making next week…”

Ruby had a big morning running the beach
Great classes today and we had Tim Mooney on hand to get some images for us. Besides his normal work of Aerial Photography, Tim enjoys the classes as much as the students … and it shows …
There were two classes today. The first with Damien Lucas teaching and the evening class with Kat Shapirio:
Here are some pics from Damien’s morning class:

Samantha has successfully completed the first two bronze pours of her sculpture which eventuated from the Life Drawing classes at Myocum School of Sculpture.

We have found our pose which is indicated in the maquette of the first photo.
The following photos are of Damien teaching us to make our armature in wire and nailing the armature to the wooden broads.
It is very important to capture the gesture of the pose in the armature.
The next photos are of the students putting the clay onto the armature and we spent a good 3 hours working with the clay and looking at our model, moving around the studio capturing and understanding the pose.
Damien teaches us to roll the clay and draw with the clay.
A very productive day of work.
We have two students in our class who have never done any sculpting before and they are both really enjoying and learning the process.
