Classical techniques and methodologies of calculating measurements, proportion and form development of the figure and portrait will be the focus of this course.

I’ll be sharing a variety of personal sculpting techniques I’ve developed over my 30+ years of experience. These insights will help you "see more" and save time in your own practice.
