Term 6 2011 Start Block Week


Dennis Berdinner – Figurative Sculpture

Hands on, using clay and plasticine and working from a live model produce a 3 dimensional  piece.  Starting with eyes, ears noses and lips, progressing to the torso at the end of the week. What a challenge! I find I’m using my left hand to sculpt while my right hand holds!( I’m right handed), we must walk around our subject and produce something far smaller than what is before us. These pieces could be a starting point to larger sculptures or working in bronze or glass (both of which are offered at TLC). 

I learnt alot from Dennis, to observe, to translate, tool technique. Below is only a sample of my output.
