This workshop will explore the human head using red sculpture clay and hand building techniques. A head will be constructed using the coil method and detail technical information on facial features and proportions will be demonstrated. The importance of bringing “self” into the work to allow a spiritual connection between the sculpture and the maker will be discussed and explored. Also different ways to approach the surface will be demonstrated by using dry clays on the wet clay and the painting of engobes, slips and underglazes to achieve the first layer and a painterly surface. The importance of making marks and drawing into the surface will be stressed.  Supplies included.
