Introduction to Sculpture SCQF 6 (Portree) NQ

What is special about this course?

Are you interested in sculpture? Would you like to experiment with a variety of materials including wire, clay, plaster, recycled and found objects to create your own three-dimensional work? All work is project-based and you will be encouraged to research sculptors and artists to inspire your practice and develop your practical and theoretical knowledge and understanding of a range of sculptural techniques. By exploring textures and form through drawing and sketchbook work you will develop a body of work and skills in refining and presenting your project work. Your artwork will be included in the end-of-year student exhibition.
