Weekly Untutored Practice for Artists

Join our untutored weekly sessions to sculpt from a live model in a relaxed but focused environment. Open to all levels.

Each week features a new male or female model posing for 5 hours, rotating 360° to give you a full view of the form.

What to Bring:

Clay, tools, base, and a spray bottle
A proper armature if working on a standing pose (bring your own or purchase one from the studio HERE.)
Oil-based clay is also available for purchase HERE.

We’ll provide sculpting stands. At the end of the session, please clean your space and take your work home, as storage isn’t available.

Feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks to stay comfortable while you work.

NZ$ 40 + GST

Scheduled every Saturday from 9am – 2pm.

Hone skills and deepen the understanding of the human figure.

Learn the Basics: These sessions give you a chance to practice important skills like proportions, balance, and anatomy—essential for making your sculptures look realistic.
Work Your Own Way: You can choose what to focus on—anatomy, a specific body part like the torso, or just exploring your artistic ideas. It’s your time to practice the way you want.
Flexible Approach: Whether you want to improve accuracy, learn new techniques, or just find inspiration, the sessions are designed to support different goals.
Bring Your Own Tools: Please bring your own clay, tools, and materials so you can work with what you’re most comfortable using.
Community Spirit: While the focus is on your own practice, being in the studio with others gives you the chance to share tips, ideas, and inspiration.
