“I have looked high and
low for useful information and techniques related to my
field of Sculpture in the Entertainment Industry. So I
was thrilled when I came across John Brown's Gnomon Workshop Sculpture
series. He provides clear,
practical and efficient lessons learned from his many years
of experience. John teaches a process from scratch that will benefit everyone
from novice to professional and will be helpful to an artist
even beyond
sculpture. Excellent!”

The Armature is the aluminum
skeleton underneath a clay sculpture. It not only supports
the sculpture, but also contains valuable proportional measurements.
More than just twisting wire, this method of making a telescoping
armature teaches how to calculate and be exact, as well as
how to plan and execute your creative ideas from their inception.
Its rudimentary approach to advanced techniques ensures professional
results from sculptors of all calibers. Learn how to determine
scale and also where the sculpture will come apart for accessibility
and molding.
