Sculpt Portraits That Feel Alive — By Mastering the Structure Beneath the Surface

Join Melanie for a 3-hour, guided sculpting session where you’ll create a portrait study in real time.

We’ll focus on the structure and block-in of the head—the essential first stages that make a sculpture feel believable and alive.

You’ll walk away with a sculpted head study, new techniques for seeing form clearly, and a process you can return to again and again.


What’s Included

✔️ Studio Setup & Supply List
A video walkthrough to help you get prepared, including guidance on clay, tools, making a simple armature, and setting up your workspace (perfect for beginners!) 

✔️ High-Quality Model Reference Photos
Print-and-sculpt from the same images used in the workshop for accurate proportions and likeness.

✔️  Real-Time Guided Workshop
A full 3-hour sculpt-along, recorded live and filmed in real time. Start, pause, and sculpt at your own pace—just like you’re in the studio with me.

✔️  Lifetime Access 
Your registration includes permanent access to all workshop materials, so you can revisit the training whenever it suits your schedule.
