Sculpting Gesture with an Armature
updated
Men's hands are generally larger, more robust, with pronounced bone structure, visible veins, and thicker skin, while women's hands are more slender, graceful, with softer transitions and finer lines. Pay attention to the proportions, joint definition, veins, tendons, nails, and overall musculature to accurately depict masculine or feminine hands.

To create quick hand gesture studies in clay it's a good idea to use the "middles, pinky, & thumb" technique. Start by sculpting the forearm and the middle three fingers as a simplified, stretched teardrop shape. Next, add the thumb and pinky using basic shapes—a flattened drumstick for the thumb and a bowling pin for the pinky. Finally, block out the fingers, indicating knuckles and padding. Aim for simplicity and complete each study in about 20-30 minutes.

In this lesson, we’ll focus on mixing muted colors with affordable clay from the dollar store. You’ll see how you can create subtle hues that will enhance your sculptures. We’ll also cover blending clay colors, showing why softer tones are sometimes better than bright ones and we’ll also look at the benefits of non-drying modeling clay. Expect some hands-on practice with color combos to achieve cool shades like dark tan and greenish-gray.

Mannequinization is the process of using simple, three dimensional forms to construct a pose, and it's integral to both drawing and sculpting. Since sculptures are already three dimensional, the process of mannequinization is centered around temporarily ignoring surface details and focusing on the primary forms that make up the figure. Join Andrew Joseph Keith as he shows you how a sculptor approaches mannequinization.
ASSIGNMENT:
Using a small wire armature, build a simple version of the mannequin with the Loomis head, the egg of the ribcage, and the box of the pelvis. Then, connect them using boxes, cylinders, or a combination of the two. Submit your assignment at proko.com/673
