Character Facial Sculpting with Dmitrij Leppee : A 10-week course in which students will learn the anatomy of the head and what makes the portrait tell a story and makes it “alive”

Learn to sculpt the human face

During this course, students will learn what makes the face look as it does—the underlying structures of the skull, muscles, fat tissue, and other structures such as glands which create and affect the forms of the face. Without a basemesh, but starting from scratch to get a better understanding of all the layers laid on top of each other. Once that knowledge is established, we will go deeper into what makes the portrait alive and tell a story.

To get a better understanding of portrait sculpting, one portrait won’t cut it, so we will create a new one.
