INTRODUCTION
TO SCULPTURE
WITH CASPIANMUSE


MARCH 22 -
APRIL 12

Saturdays | 2 pm - 4:30 pm

$400

Join this 4-session introductory workshop and learn to sculpt human body parts through observation. Starting with facial features, you'll use mirrors, 3D models, anatomy references, and images to guide your work. You'll also learn foundational sculpting techniques and tools to kickstart your journey.


Each Saturday session (2.5 hours) invites participants to explore clay as a versatile, creative medium. You'll develop observational skills, discover imaginative approaches to sculpting the human form, and even begin your own sculpture projects, receiving guidance along the way.

Completed sculptures will be fired and ready for pick-up 4–6 weeks after the workshop, ensuring proper drying and firing.

Open to all skill levels, this workshop offers individual attention tailored to your experience.
