Figure Modeling: Designing the Seated Pose at Lyme Academy of Fine Art


  • Lyme Academy of Fine Art 84 Lyme Street Old Lyme, CT, 06371 United States (map)

Lyme Academy of Fine Art in Old Lyme Connecticut is my “home away from home” for teaching. This year we inaugurated an exciting new full time core sculpture curriculum. During the Summer I’ll be offering a workshop there that’s open enrollment. It’s a great opportunity to continue your studies in the inspirational environment at Lyme Academy and experience this incredible learning environment first hand. My workshop will focus on the seated figure pose. Students will work from life in oil-based clay. We’ll begin the workshop with several quick sketches, exploring various poses. Students will then collaborate to select a pose from the sketches and develop it further for the remaining 4 days. Once the pose has been selected, I’ll present my 3-part method for figure modeling, demonstrating each step along the way.
