Workshop Experience

This workshop is led by figurative sculptor & designer Gülnar Babayeva @caspianmuse gulnarbabayeva.com 

This introductory 1 session workshop is a complementary opportunity for anybody who would like to try a session before committing to a full workshop. Everything included in the price: instructions, tools, clay and firing.

In this introductory workshop you learn how to sculpt facial features through observation by using reference materials like 3D models, plaster models, artistic anatomy and images. You will be introduced to the tools and foundational techniques to start your sculpting journey. Student learns to sculpt one feature per session: nose, mouth, ear, eye.

There is no pressure to commit to the full workshop; and student can choose to register as drop-in at another time to continue working on the next feature.

This beginner friendly Intro to Sculpture workshop consists of 4 sessions, scheduled on Fridays 5-7:30 for 2.5 hours. A drop-in participant will be part of this workshop for one session only.  During this time participants explore clay as a playable material and its possibilities in sculpture. We aim to tap into participants’ natural abilities & talents as well as to improve their observational skills over time; lastly, they are encouraged to explore imaginative solutions for modeling a human form, besides referencing academic materials. Participants are welcome to initiate their own sculpture projects and will be guided through their process. 

A completed sculpture can be up to 15 inches tall, will be fired and available for pick-up 4-6 weeks post-workshop to allow slow drying and firing.

Participants of all levels are welcome, and each will be given individual attention to guide them through their sculpture journey.

Community tools are available in the studio. You are welcome to bring your own tools.

Clay + Firing fees are included.

Looking forward to meeting you!
