Artist Richard Perry teaches this six-session class in relief painting and relief sculpture, designed for artists who are proficient in drawing, painting, or sculpture and are willing to learn new ways of thinking about and creating art. Each student will produce their own small wire relief of a figure in motion and a relief tablet of a still life.

During the first three classes, Richard will explore the physiological basis for seeing art, and instruct students in drawing a dancer in motion from a live model. Students will consider elements of composition, learn to use wire and tools, make a maquette, and a wiring relief sculpture.

The second three weeks focus on relief painting concepts, drawing still life, and learning to draw/paint on a clay tablet. Students will sculpt their still life on clay tablets, cast tablets to form rough relief paintings.
