Requirements

  • No knowledge of sculpture of any kind is necessary.
  • It is important to have a sculpture project to work: it is a 100% practical course and it is important that you work on a piece of your choice, so that your hands become accustomed to mastering materials and tools.
  • If you still do not have a sculpture project, you can take the course and let yourself be inspired by it, but then you must create your own figure (or make a similar one to mine) so that knowledge is practical and not theoretical.
  • Persistence: not always everything will come to the first. You have to exercise and repeat the exercises. Little by little everything will turn out exactly as you imagined.
  • You want to experiment: making sculpture is fun!
  • We will use a number of different materials and tools. Here is the list: drawing material, pencil or pen, sharpie, embossed wooden base, shelf squared or asparagus with nuts (plus cut-off for metal) or an L for shelves, Latex gloves, thinner, brushes, polyurethane foam, plastic bags and adhesive tape, vinyl or acrylic paint or automotive sealant for carts, cups and blisters, silicon rubber and TP catalyst (optional), clear acrylic lacquer Spray (optional), modeling clay (any brand), sand paper (240 or thinner), kitchen knife or cutter, modeling tools (wooden spatulas, carving tools and dental spatulas)
  • All materials are required (except those indicated as optional). About modeling tools, I give you a recommendation: before buying all the tools you find in the art shop, watch the videos and buy what you need. When I started I had 3 tools and even though I have 50 now, I still use two or three favorites.
  • A space to work with good light
