Learn basic to advanced sculpting techniques
with
film industry and fine art sculptor, Greg Polutanovich
Greg has fifteen years experience working in the film
and television industry as a make up effects sculptor, along with amusement park, computer game and
merchandise sculpting. He also has ten years
experience as a fine art sculptor who has his work
cast in bronze.
For the first time he is offering private
lessons for those who are very serious about learning
the art of sculpture. You will get "one on one"
attention with critiques as you work along side him
on the same type of project. Greg will demonstrate the
basic to advanced techniques along with discussing
the philosophy of sculpture. He will leave it up to
you to determine the type of project that you are
interested in working on. Whether it's a bust, full
figure, animal, creature or character design, Greg's method of sculpture is building from
the bone structure, to muscles, to skin and then to
clothing and accessories. With great attention to
anatomy, dynamic poses, proportion, gesture, form and
detail. He will show you how to execute a natural and
emotion feel and precision for the full range from
subtle to dramatic facial expressions. Along with
special importance to eyes, nose, mouth and hair
formation, Greg acquired many of the techniques that
he uses today from working in the film industry and
developing his own fine art. People that collect his
work are drawn to the realistic detail, dramatic
expressions and poses of his sculptures..
This is an excellent opportunity for you
to learn to sculpt or to improve your sculpting
skills with one on one instruction.
"Contact me for
session availability and I will work around your
schedule too. Space will be limited so sign up early
to insure that you will be able to participate in my
valuable sculpting program when it starts. My start
date is to be determined but contact me with your
interests so you will be first in line. It will be
an 8 week course, 1 day a week, 3 hours a day and
$75.00 for 1 three hour session. Plus, supply price
will be determined depending on the project or you
can provide your own clay and armature supplies. We
will work from photo reference and each student will
need to collect their own for the project they
choose. Tools will be available for student use or
recommendations will be provided for the best type of
tool that you can use for your project. My course
will also include armature building, photography and
portfolio creation. Also, if you want to get your
work cast in bronze, I will recommend a good foundry. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks
for your interest and I look forward to passing on my
knowledge to those who are interested in the art of
sculpture."
