I completed three wonderful workshops at Figura before diving into the two-year Complete Sculpture Program. Besides the great teachers and their thoughtful guidance, I love that the part-time nature of the program allows me to continue my jewelry making: newly informed by the sculpting techniques I learn at Figura!

I like that you learn to understand what happens with such a body. It's not just about creating a beautiful line, but also, why does that line appear? What can I do with that line? Understanding where it originates from and why it finds peace in a pose, Thát's what I enjoy.

I have chosen Figura because of Sanne. I love her work. Working with a life model is as close as you can get, like figuring out a real life puzzle. It's interesting to see how the pose changes, to see the model breathe. I've learned to observe, looking at shapes, transitions, plane breaks and how to interpret the shapes.

Figura's sculpting course has completely transformed my perspective on the human body. Emphasizing posture, lines, and expression deepened my understanding. This course made me realize that it's about more than just resemblance – it's about capturing the essence. An unexpected but valuable discovery in the world of sculpting.
