In this class, students will learn how to make a human or animal figurative sculpture. We will work large, at the scale of anywhere between half and full life sized. Starting with photos, we will use the technique of coil building to make our pieces from the table up. You don't need prior experience with clay to take this class.

Traditional African Bronze Casting: 4 Day workshop
In Traditional Africa Bronze Casting, students will learn the art of lost wax bronze, as it is done in Burkina Faso. Lost wax is a process that has been in use for thousands of years all around the world. We will build small sculptures out of wax, and then learn the skills of mold making. We will pour molten metal into the molds, making bronze forms. Each student will go home with a small bronze piece of original artwork. This class is a unique experience for people of all experience levels with casting, because the way we will work is with very different materials then most contemporary foundries in the US.
