We
can begin with a few live gesture drawings, about 30 seconds
each, to warm up and get posing ideas, then we create the sculptures
using about a foot of aluminum foil. I also run through some famous
figural sculptures by Giacometti, Degas, and Henry Moore on the
whiteboard projector to get in the sculpting spirit! and some
important sculptures by our famous artist in Vigo Francisco
Leiro
Start
the scrunching slowly, to keep from tearing the foil, and then once
it's starting to take shape, you can refine te pose. If a limb gets
torn off, it is easily repaired at the end with the hot glue gun.
Next,
we trace the figure on the mat board base and shade it in. I attach
them myself with a spot of hot glue.
