Another great day jam packed with a ton of information. After going over Weight Distribution and how it affects Gesture in a figure, Stephen showed us how he approaches sculpting a Life size foot. He spoke about a sequence of hierarchy and urged us to work from simple to complex forms.
The studio was full of excitement as we started a new week with Stephen Perkins. Many of us are still absorbing all of the information that was given to us last time Stephen was here. All of the students arrived early and ready to pick up right where we left off.
Steve's Ecorche Class
At the end of our ecorche class with Perkins, he was able to focus on certain muscles and parts of the body on a larger scale. Here’s Steve lecturing about the arm, sculpted at life size.
Here are some of the drawings from the anatomy/dissection lab through our exciting collaboration with the Drexel University School of Medicine in Philadelphia this past fall.

The studies above analyze and cover not only anatomy but structural, tonal/compositional, surface topography and morphology as well as perspectival analyses.
To complement the work in the anatomy lab, we started our ecorché class this year with Stephen Perkins.

Can’t wait until this following fall to continue our collaboration with the wonderful folks at Drexel School of Medicine! We’ll post more work in the fall concurrently with the class.
