  • Life Drawing for Sculptors with Simon Harris

    Tom Bass Sculpture Studio School 1A Clara Street, Erskineville, NSW, Australia

    Saturdays: 14 Feb - 28 Mar (6 weeks - no class on 28 Feb)

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.
