Create creatures in clay with sculptor James Ort 

Over the course of the weekend we will make a range of clay creatures.  Starting with relief pieces, we will progress to reclined/seated animals & finally onto four legged specimens.  Decide what you want to make, bring some reference materials (see my guide on selecting reference material for sculpture ) and away we go!  You should aim to produce three or more sculptures over the course of the weekend.

Your work will be dried out and fired.  You can then come back and add colourful underglazes should you wish, either on a Creative Tuesday or a date arranged between us. 

The technique I use is loose, expressive, and innovative. It is this creative quality that brings the pieces to life.
