About this title

Synopsis

Discover practical, hands-on instruction in modelling with clay and wax, ideal for students preparing for art exams and building real-world skill.

The book presents a clear, course‑like path through the essentials of modelling in clay and wax, with practical guidance for school classrooms and individual study. It covers materials, tools, and a sequence of graded exercises—from simple forms to more complex foliage, ornament, and even a complete bust. The emphasis is on working directly with clay, keeping models damp, and using wax and p�te plastique for longer projects. It also shows how to set up a modelling space, manage clay storage, and prepare plaster molds for casting.

What you’ll experience

Step-by-step guidance on preparing plastic clay, storage, and practical work setups for classrooms and studios.
Hands-on projects that build skill from basic forms to more intricate ornament and figures.
Techniques for accurate drawing alignment, sculpting from casts, and achieving subtle surface textures.
Foundations of moulding and casting, including plaster mixes and safe pouring methods.

Ideal for readers who want a practical, historical yet approachable entry into modelling, suitable for teachers and students alike.
