Deane Nettles is a Baltimore-based sculptor who has been working in clay for 20 years and is co-founder of the Baltimore Sculpture Studio.

In this class, students will learn the basics of figure sculpture, creating a smaller-than-life sculpture using profiles, silhouettes, and measurements.

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

The class will be held on Sunday mornings from 10am‑1pm in our Station North studio at 405 East Oliver Street, Studio 354, Baltimore.

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.
