Workshop with Debra Fritts
 
Saturday & Sunday, May 3 & 4, 2014
 

This workshop will explore the figure in sculpture using hand-building techniques. A head will be constructed using the coil method and detail technical information on facial features and proportions will be demonstrated . The importance of bringing "self" into the work to allow a spiritual connection between the sculpture and the maker will be discussed and explored. Also different ways to approach the surface will be demonstrated by using dry clays on the wet clay and the painting of engobes, slips and underglazes to achieve the first layer and a painterly surface. The importance of making marks and drawing into the surface will be stressed.

A presentation sharing the influence of nature and the environment on Fritt's current work will also be presented.

Cost: $350. Includes all materials and lunch.
