This small scale sculpture class is for the artist of any skill level whether you’ve always wanted to get your hands dirty or are already accomplished with them. An introductory, no pressure fun time with papier-mâché and found objects. In this course you will learn how to use these plaster like materials to build a structurally sound (free standing or hanging) piece, along with problem solving and elements of sculpture.

  • The course will go from ideation and sketching to complete formation and problem solving of creating a structurally sound sculpture. Students will start with a skeleton structure and using papier-mâché to fully form creatures then painting or applying finishing materials.
  • First day items: sketchbook and drawing materials, a roll of 10-4 gauge sculpture wire (or several wire coat hangers), newspaper and masking tape.
    Additional supplies I will go over first day: newspaper or newsprint, optional gesso (at least an 8oz jar), variety of acrylic or tempera paint and brushes, piece of wood or other material for sculpture base, found objects to incorporate into sculpture.
