“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!”

Sculpting the maquette (small
model) develops not only good technique, but also provides
the artist with an understanding of the workflow of a sculpture,
ensuring quality and efficiency. Beginning with a clean armature,
this lecture takes the student through the entire process of
realizing a finished piece. Its rudimentary approach to advanced
techniques ensures professional results from sculptors of all
calibers. Complete with narrative theory and practical application,
it offers an in depth look at the As, Bs & Cs of the preliminary,
intermediary & post sculpture process.
