Donna Willard-Moore, Fine Arts Tutor at WITT, ran a workshop to introduce club members to the art of sculpture. Donna outlined some key principles of portraiture and slab construction over an armature whilst modelling a sculpture portrait from a photo of Martin Luther King. The photographs below show the transformation from muddy snowman through alien to humanoid! In under two hours the club members were inspired. Our thanks to Donna for sharing her skill and passion for portraiture and sculpture with us and for inspiring us to step outside our comfort zones and try something new.
