Saturdays: 1 August - 12 September (6 weeks)

This 6-week* life drawing course focuses on learning to see and draw the human figure as a three-dimensional, sculptural form. Working from a live model each week, sessions combine guided demonstrations, short warm-up studies and longer poses, with optional group critique. Through a structured progression covering gesture, proportion, light, anatomy and spatial depth, students strengthen observational drawing skills and spatial awareness, culminating in a sustained final figure study that supports and enriches sculptural practice.

*Please note this is a 6 week class running over 7 weeks, there will be no class running on Saturday 15 August.

Wax is a wonderful medium and has many unique properties that make it ideal for sculpting. Wax can be used as a liquid, as a paste, warm (like plasticine), or cold (carvable). During this workshop students will be shown various techniques to utilize these variable states of the medium. Students will be shown how to construct a wax armature, explore modelling techniques and the use of tools for smoothing and texturing.

This Workshop is now fully booked. To join the waitlist, please email admin@tbsss.org.au.
