Course fee: $500; Early-Bird $450
James Ort is renowned for his exquisitely accurate sculptural depictions of animals and birds. Participants in this course will need to prepare a well researched concept of what animal they wish to create, preferably with photographs and sketches.
Over the duration of the course, you will typically make one sculpture each day – this is to ensure you do not get too precious or tight, for it is the spontaneity and looseness that brings the life! To give you the best understanding and skills, James will show you how to make a range of animals in a range of forms, including wall-mounted portrait heads, four-legged standing mammals, dynamic, seated and two legged standing mammals, as well as birds and fish. James will be given a series of demonstrations that show you the key stages and principles of the technique.
