Description
Using less depth than regular sculpture, bas-relief sculpture is thought to be one of the most difficult forms to master. At this in-depth workshop, learn how to create a human likeness in bas-relief. Work from a live model and with clay to learn both additive and subtractive techniques. Experienced carvers may opt to bring wood or stone. For intermediate and advanced-level sculptors. Includes a one-hour lunch break.
