SUMMARY:Fantastic Faces - Lloydminster
DESCRIPTION:Discover the joy of sculpting fantastic faces in this hands-on workshop using natural pottery clay in a spectacular setting. Guided by your passionate instructor\, you will explore the nuances of the human face. Through step-by-step demonstrations\, you will experience basic sculpting techniques\, emphasizing the creation of lively and evocative sculptures. Then you add your own expressive finishes to develop a unique expression of your creativity. Come with an idea for your character or simply let it evolve as you sculpt. \nThis workshop is designed for all skill levels\, fostering a supportive and creative environment where each artist can infuse their unique emotions into the clay\, resulting in a truly expressive and personalized sculpture. \nRenowned Albertan artist and sculpting instructor Ryan Kurylo brings his expertise and passion to every workshop\, with a gentle approach and enjoyable teaching style he has inspired many to discover\, or re-discover their passion for sculpture. \n\n  \nParticipants are encouraged to bring:\nDrink/snack. Lunch.\nStudio clothes (it’s not messy) comfy shoes\nNotebook\nCamera/phone \nAll sculpting materials and tools are provided.\nClay is Plainsman H441-G heavily grogged sculpture body. \nLunch at 12:00. 1 hour is afforded for lunch just in case but most people have a sandwich and keep sculpting. I take a 1/2 hour break around noon. \nI lead the group step-by-step to create a sculpture bust (face\, neck and base)\, demonstrating and giving individual attention to participants. Everyone makes their own original sculpture bust at approx. 3/4 life size from pottery clay. Students are guided to create a realistic feminine or masculine face but participants are free to create a fantasy or cartoon character or anything they want really. Some participants may want a challenge\, some just want a low stress experience\, I can help everyone decide what to sculpt and support their decision. I discourage people bringing photos for reference to create an “exact likeness” (it is very difficult and often not fun for the participant). However photos can be used for “inspiration” freeing ourselves from creating exact likeness. \nI demonstrate hollowing out the sculpture in preparation for kiln firing and assist anyone who wants. Some students prefer to simply let their sculpture air dry and not fire it. \nI quickly demonstrate painting a faux-bronze acrylic effect over air dried clay. \nAfter completion of the workshop the sculpture will air dry for about 2 weeks then it can be painted or fired in a kiln and glazed.
