My very first attempt at sculpture and I loved it.  Clara’s enthusiasm was infectious and I found myself lost in the clay and enjoying every minute.  We had the most wonderful model who was beautiful inside and out who also made the day special.  I can’t wait for my  next lesson.

Clara’s directions were clear and encouraging and the atmosphere of the class was relaxed and fun. Considering I had never modelled anything before, I was actually surprised and happy with the objects I managed to sculpt and take home with me. Clara’s class was the perfect introduction to clay sculpting for an amateur like me and I would highly recommend these classes to anyone wanting to explore new art forms.

Clara Hall’s Body Connections was a fantastic and rewarding way to spend the day. As someone who has primary worked with 2D images and illustrations it was a thrill to look at form and volume within the medium of clay. So many of us work digitally these days, this is a great way to form a tactile relationship with our craft. Clara is a patient and professional tutor and the overall structure of the class was of great benefit to me as an artist. The model was top notch and a true inspiration to sculpt. I’m proud of the work I created and am excited about opening the door into this new artist pursuit. I would recommend this class to anyone interested in the artistic study of the human form. It has really accelerated my understanding of the body and it’s mass.
