| Paul worked on the basic keys to sculpture while using live
female and male models
. |
Paul worked on the anatomy of the human figure but with a personal perception of the subject for individual renderings. As seen by the work, and photos, each artist had their own interpretation of the same subject. Paul covered all the basics in sculpturing with design, drapery, gesture, movement, expression in the male and female anatomy. Paul's students ranged from Talented Showing Sculptures to first time attempt at the Sculpture Art. All the students where wonderful and worked at achieving new heights in the shaping and forming of clay. Some even had bronzing in mind. |

Paul's Statue technique achieved all the color and look of
a firing without the
process. His unusual technique and creativity shows why he is world renown. Here
he applies the finishes to student Justin's male Figure model. Using the
skills of a painter and the wisdom of an experienced clay firer Paul
achieves a rich 3-D feel. Paul will have
another class in Sept from the 27th -Oct 1. with must of the same students
signed-up to capture more of Paul Lucchesi's Talent skills and passion. More info lovelandacademy.com |
