Course Description
In this course students will begin to experience the long tradition of figure sculpting in clay. The class will use facial features as a fun informal place to start.

The class will focus on creating Nose, Eyes, Ears and Mouth, done independent of a face and completed as multiple independent projects. Students are encouraged to try this beginning course that will be engaging and accessible, with lots of room for success.

Bruce, James
Hello Everyone! I’m very excited to be teaching this class for the first time. My formal training as a sculptor comes from my time at the Academy of Art University where I completed a Masters Degree in Art Education in 2017. I’ve been a teaching artist at the Richmond Art Center since 2014 where I have taught mixed media, drawing and animation to youth both at the center and in the community. I’m currently a member of the Dogtown sculpting community in Berkeley.
