Sculpture at the Omnibus Theatre by Red Art Club ❤️🔥
Join us for our new Saturday sculpture class at the Omnibus Theatre in Clapham Common.
We’ll be sculpting a mini figurine of a nude model with special instruction from our sculpture instructor, Francisco (he/him).
You’ll be taught the basics of sculpture, starting off with life drawing and building clay on a wire armature, moving onto detailing your sculpture and finishing off with smoothing your sculpture.
We also provide extensive aftercare instructions which will help you dry and preserve your sculpture in the best way possible.
All materials are provided. These are: 1kg clay per student, clay tools, prepped armature, wire tools, a wooden board, an A3 canvas board, paper and drawing materials.
Your finished sculpture will fit onto a wooden board that is 15cm x 15cm.
Who are we? Red Art Club is a small, independent business run by a group of socialist artists.
We run weekly life drawing classes in Clapham Common alongside monthly life drawing dating events in partnership with the Thursday dating app 💘
We also run pop up still life lino printing workshops at the Omnibus Theatre, Clapham Common.
🥂 There is a 10% discount at the bar for all artists in the session 🥂
All you have to do to claim your discount is to show one of your drawings from the class to the bartender 🎨
