A full day weekend workshop with skilled ceramic sculptor, Ben Swift. During the one day workshop you will, with guidance and demonstrations from your tutor: Model a small self/portrait head in Terracotta. Learn about proportions of the head. Build up a basic head form on a simple armature support. Use modelling tools to construct the features. Create surface details: hair, skin etc. Finish and prepare the piece for the kiln.! Teacher is Ben Swift  Ben is a ceramic artist and ceramics teacher based in Dulwich. His work explores both figurative, geometric and organic subjects with emphasis on process: construction, throwing, casting and fabrication, thus creating rhythms, textures and forms. These are expressed through the treatment of a variety of media. Most often he employs ceramics but he also combines constructed metals and found objects. Recent work has begun to compose disparate elements as assemblages. Cost is £150; concessions £75 As with all Bell House Pottery courses we offer two concession tickets at half price, which can be booked directly at the box office. If you would not be able to attend at the full price due to financial considerations, then this concession option is available.
