Sculpture Classes & Short Courses
Passions and even new careers can result from evening or part - time courses, but the most influential daytime course discovered 12 years ago, has to be Friday afternoon Mary Ward Centre Sculpture classes with Ben Swift. Taking to clay straight away, I was soon building larger and larger work, in a variety of materials and enjoying some wonderfully relaxed, but creative company..
*The year long 3 day a week Professional Development Sculpture Class at Kensington & Chelsea College was pretty life transforming too as it included two exhibitions.
*Jerwood Nominated Sculptor Richard Trupp started a week long Bronze Casting course at Kingston University, with a foundry onsite!
Furthermore he is full of the most enthusiastic stories, as he had been Anthony Caro's assistant.. and those doing more intricate work can even have an assistant to help, taken from those doing more straight forward projects. Beware, some other bronze casting courses do not cover the whole process, but here we even do metal work to perfect our pieces, plus patination when our pieces have cooled down.
Has to be the best short course, in any discipline that I've ever attended! LW
