About the Event

There are few artistic pursuits more rewarding than creating a successful portrait bust. Join sculptor Marty Davis as he explains the elements of successful portraiture and demonstrates the techniques of sculpting an accurate likeness. Topics include the anatomy of the skull and neck, the proportion and placement of the features, and how to generate and refine a convincing likeness. Students will create two portrait busts, one male and one female, over nine weeks.



This class is for all skill levels. No experience with sculpture is necessary—this is a good class for those who are interested in improving their portrait painting and drawing, too!



Materials: Materials will be discussed at the first class.



PLEASE NOTE: this course begins one week early and has one extra meeting (9 sessions total).
