Sculpting the Animal Spirit: exploring paper clay
Sculpting the Animal Spirit: exploring paper clay
Saturday, April 11, 2026 (10:00 AM - 3:00 PM) (EDT)
Description
Capture the essence, movement, and living energy of animals in this hands-on impressionistic sculpture workshop with internationally renowned sculptor Carol Lake.
Working with paper clay, your hands and minimal tools, the focus is on gesture and presence rather than photographic detail — the sculptural equivalent of impressionist painting.
Students will explore bas-relief sculpting and three-dimensional animal forms, learning simple armature construction and developing an intuitive, tactile approach to clay. All levels welcome — beginners often thrive with this approach, and experienced artists find it liberating.
You’ll leave with finished or in-progress pieces and a new way of seeing and working with clay. Work can be fired if completed, but can also be displayed and even painted in its unfired form.
