Who It's For:

Beginners: this is the perfect introduction to the process and experience of creating a figure sculpture using the material of clay. When you enrol, you will receive immediate access to instructions on what supplies + how to get set up at home quickly and easily.

2D Artists: sculpting is the best way to improve your sense of form, volume, and structure in your drawing and painting. Sculpting the body in three dimensions will improve your 2D artwork!
