In this class, students will learn techniques for creating a life-size portrait bust using profiles, silhouettes, and caliper measurements.

Students will have the opportunity to practice sculpting from a live model, focusing on capturing the proportions and essence of the head in clay.

Students must have prior sculpting experience or at minimum drawing experience.

The class will be held on Tuesday evenings from 6:30‑9:30pm in our Station North studio at 405 East Oliver Street, Studio 354, Baltimore.

Join Our Community!

We are a collective of community-oriented, dedicated figure sculptors. We’ve created a space where we can sculpt in clay from live models in Baltimore’s Station North art district in a wonderful, light-filled studio with heating and air conditioning.

We have figure sculpture sessions with live models on Sunday afternoons.

We are looking for sculptors to join us as yearly and half-yearly members. See membership benefits below.

We take part in open studio tours and there is a gallery in the building so there may be options to participate in gallery shows.

Our vision is to branch out with:

Workshops with local artists
Workshops with visiting artists
Artist talks
