(Students may choose to purchase additional materials for finishing)
Learn to sculpt human or animal facial features and figures. Begin with the bone structure, add muscles and finish with a life-like surface. Using an armature you will learn to sketch a 3D form with clay. Create something life-like or fantastical.
Bring ideas, pictures or drawings on the first night.
You will have 4 weeks to sculpt. Then, your piece will need 3 weeks to dry slowly and when completely dry it can be fired in the kiln. In the 5th final class, on February 26th you will learn finishing techniques. You will need to bring your acrylic paints and brushes that night. (Liz will discuss what you will need in class)

Liz Lewandowski
Liz has a BA from Concordia College, WI. She is an extremely talented hand-builder and sculptor. She has taught classes for CCC since 2014, many of her own unique design. Liz is also the head of glaze mixing and kiln operation. Thanks to her we have 21 hand-mixed glazes, 8 slips and 4 oxide washes. In addition she keeps 3 kilns firing up to 3 times per week, all while keeping a wicked sense of humor. “I’m an Illustrator by trade but have found a special place in my heart for ceramics. I enjoy making 3d pieces of art and then incorporating drawings and designs in the the surface. I specialize in dragons, monsters and all things nightmarish!” Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lsquaredstudio/?hl=en
