Sculpting a Horse Head in Clay While I Chat About Learning How to Improve My Process +IG Q/A

There’s something about the challenge of sculpting in low-relief that’s unusually tricky, yet I figured out how to do it, and I’ll take you along on the complete process of this horse sculpting journey, while also answering a few sculpting questions from Instagram. This time, I’m sculpting with Sargent Art brand of plastilina clay and comparing it to my previous experience with sculpting horses in epoxy putty. This is my sixth attempt at sculpting a clay horse in a low-relief (or bas-relief or medallion as it’s also called). I even share my first attempt to sculpt this very horse in medallion form to see how much my horse anatomy has improved. ✨IN THIS VIDEO I SHARE: ○ Tips for keeping a low-relief flat ○ How I sculpt horse eyes ○ How I simplify complex horse anatomy with easy shapes and details ○ Some info on plastilina clay and how it compares to sculpting with epoxy puttty ○ A quick overview of the molding process (check out this video to see me mold this sculpture:    • Molding Clay Sculptures & Bronze Cold Cast...  ) ○ This horse is inspired by the many stallions of the McCullough Peaks mustang herd management area ▶️ YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE:    • 🔹Creating HORSE SCULPTURES      • 🔹Creating ANIMAL SCULPTURES      • 🔹Creating PAINTINGS, PRINTMAKING, DRAWING,...   I publish videos once a month sharing my adventures in creating horse and animal art in my free time for my own enjoyment, like sculpture, painting, printmaking and more.
