Get inspired by City Lit’s sculpture courses in the techniques of carving and modelling, which take place in our purpose built, well-equipped sculpture studio in the heart of London. On our carving courses, you will transform a piece of wood or stone into your 3-Dimential design, exploring the characteristics of each material. Our sculpture modelling courses include working in a wide range of materials including clay, wax, plaster and papier mâché.
Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced practitioner who wants to refresh or develop their skills and knowledge, our courses give you the opportunity to take your work to the next level. Our hands-on courses are taught by specialist tutors whose teaching is enriched by their own artistic practice. You will be fully supported through practical demonstrations to the group and one-to-one guidance, in a friendly and highly creative environment.
Have you ever wanted to try sculpting in wood? Or perhaps you're experienced at it but would like expert guidance to develop your ideas? This comprehensive course encourages wood carvers of all levels to bring along their ideas and see how they can be developed. You will make models of your designs, upscale and transpose these, and use professional carving tools to produce beautiful pieces in wood.
