Tuesday Night- Portrait Sculpture-New Instructor Alicia Ponzio-New

Don’t miss this opportunity to study at our New BACAA Studios located in San Carlos CA. We are 30 minutes south of beautiful San Francisco Bay Area.

This technique follows traditional classical atelier setting. Students have the luxury to work in very close proximity to the model.

For the first time at BACAA, we’ll be offering a course in Portrait Sculpture.  The course will meet weekly for 9 weeks, for 3 hour sessions. Alicia Ponzio, a Florence Academy trained sculptress, will guide students through the process of sculpting from life in traditional water based clay, on a wooden armature. Using direct observation, students will learn to read and describe the structural elements of the portrait, and then to explore the form, likeness, and expression of the sitter. Composition as it relates to portrait sculpture will also be discussed.  Alicia will work alongside students and offer feedback to individual students during each class.

The course is appropriate for beginning or advanced students of sculpture, as well as all levels of painters and draftsmen who are interested in studying the portrait in 3 dimensions.

Each student will work on a life size portrait for the duration of the course. At the end of the course, the piece can be photographed, or students may opt to cast it or fire it themselves if they have access to those facilities.

Armatures and Clay will be provided, please bring tools. See recommended tools.

Alicia N. Ponzio Alicia Nicole Ponzio (b.1974) is a figurative sculptress working primarily in bronze.  Originally from the United States, she completed her sculpture training in Florence, Italy at the Florence Academy of Art (FAA) in 2008. She was then Director of Artistic Anatomy and Écorché Sculpture programs, as well as a figure drawing instructor at the same school for 3 years before returning to the United States (San Francisco, CA) in July of 2011.
Alicia brings life to her bronzes, using the language of the figure to speak of emotional experiences. In Florence, Italy, she sought an education in the figure, immersed in the aesthetic of the Renaissance and Classical. She’s drawn to subject matter that’s empathic and timeless.  Recently, her work has been recognized by several international organizations, including the Portrait Society of America, the Society of Portrait Sculptors, and The Art Renewal Center.

Noah Buchanan Anatomy - Figure Drawing with Emphasis on Muscular Skeletal - Tuesday Evening March 27-May 29, 2012 -New

Return by Noah BuchananIntro: 

March 27-May 29, 2012 June 4-August 10, 2012

This class will focus on understanding the figure as an anatomical event through lectures on the musculoskeletal system of the torso. Students will explore graphite rendering techniques of the figure through the long, extended pose. Emphasis will also be placed on proportion, using the 7.5 head proportion system. 

 

Syllabus: 

Each of the 10 classes will follow the same format: The class meeting will begin with an hour long lecture on the anatomy of the torso, with focus on the muscular system of the torso, both deep and superficial muscles. Bones will be discussed at the beginning of the term, followed by discussions on the muscles. The following two hours of each class meeting will be spent rendering a long pose in graphite. The instructor will offer one on one critique for each student. The instructor will also develop his own drawing in each class meeting for the purpose of demonstration.
