My name is Eirik Arnesen and I'm a sculptor from Norway, living and working in Florence, Italy. I teach sculpture at the Florence Academy of Art and on this channel I'll share with you every step of my process, discussing materials, tools and techniques.
Eventually you'll find tutorials on how I go about sculpting everything from a portrait to a life-size figure.

Thank you for all the helpful information, Eirik!
You're welcome 🙂
I love sculpting hands. I feel they are extremely expressive. Love your work.
Thank you so much!
You are so generous with your gift. Thank you! I am new to sculpting and so inspired by you and your work.
You are welcome! Thank you!
Your insight is phenomenal. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words! I hope you enjoy the videos 🙂
Fascinating. And thank you for introducing Jean Baptiste Carpeaux. I just an hour or so looking into him and Michelanelo. And Bernini whose a favourite of mine. You are a great ambassador for figurative Art.
Carpeaux is a legend! It's sad he didn't live longer and got to make more work in the vain of the Ugolino, my god what a masterpiece!
Lots of great information. Thank you 🙏
You are most welcome!
Great that you share your knowledge and experience through your videos..you gained a subscriber..thanks from the UK.
Thank you! I’m happy to do so! Doing what I can to keep the tradition of figurative sculpture alive.
Thank you Eirik I’m learning a lot from you 👍

Thank you! Yes he's a very good model.
Mind blowing 🤯 work.
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome esculpture .
Thank you!
the right hand of Michelangelo's David is one of the greatest things ever sculpted in my humble opinion.
Hard to disagree with that! Though I’d put the hands Carpaux did on the Ugolino up there as well. Michelangelo’s Moses as well! Michelangelo sculpted a few good hands...
so inspiring and suppertive to us thanks..
So nice of you, thank you!
Thank you !
You're welcome!
U r an inspiration ❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
You're awesome!
Haha thank you 🙂
Very nice and good
Thanks.
Awesome job. You are great inspiration for us. I would like to know more about the silicone rubber that you use (Yellow). In Brazil we dont have. I see in many videos and photos of this rubber that aplication is make with hands and the consistency is very diferent.
Tks a lot. Sorry my english, i still learning.
It’s called Bluesil RTV 3325 P. Maybe it’s not available in Brazil. See if Resilpom is available, pretty much the same thing. And Smooth On has a couple of silicones that are similar! Thank you for kind words 🙂 You’re English is better than my Portuguese!
Tks Eirik. Insformation is de key, thanks for sharing.
Ty
You are welcome.
hello I was hoping you could do a video on sculpting the head if you haven't already started or planed to. I would like to see your method. I use to sculpt years ago for about four and a half years I achieved the female face twice perfectly in many opinions. I took on the techniques of Stuart Williamson sculpting from the inside out. as things are, life happens and I was forced to stop my craft due to financial issues. I just recently picked it back up. I had a whole studio worth of supplies I had to abandon including Stuarts video witch I studied endlessly I still remember a great deal enough to get started again. not to beat around the bush do not want to fork over 120$ again after all I lost. so I was waiting for you to release something if not ok, but if so I can imagine many would be eternally grateful. thank you your skills are ancient in style and I am a huge fan. if you make any dvds they would definitely sell. once again thank you.
Hello and thank you for your comment! I am planning to make an extensive portrait sculpting video series in the future. It will probably be Patreon Exclusive, meaning you have to be a $5 or more Patreon in order to get access to the video. I will be making a video on sculpting very small heads soon as well using my latest maquette as an example.
What clay do you use, and does it dry out to get hard or do you bake it somehow?
It's water based clay, so it does dry out. But I water it so it doesn't and then I make a mold of the sculpture and cast copies. No baking.
thanks for this tutorial! :) i have to ask. what music you listen to when you sculpt? ^^ ps helloo from Finland!
You are welcome! Mostly metal, Opeth, Devin Townsend, Tool and many other bands like this.
@@EirikArnesenArt ah! Well i listen too that kind of music when i do jewerly ^^ im soon graduating to become jewerly and small objects artisan :)
That's awesome! Congrats!
What kind of clay do you use?
Water-based clay. Very simple terracotta clay.
what clay do you usually use?
I'll refer you to my FAQ, it has all my materials and links to where to buy them: www.patreon.com/posts/frequently-asked-54343994
How do you sculpt hands for an 18 inch figure
Use a small tool and work from large to small. Less details might work to your advantage. The impression is more important then how realistically the hand is sculpted.
hmmmmm....in one of your videos you mention a website for sculpture supplies.. (not patreon)...(not skillshare)
Here is a link to my FAQ, it's free and has links to everything I use: www.patreon.com/posts/frequently-asked-54343994
Dude you sound like that super fast dude from the second avengers movie
The Flash! Thank you!
Blender Guru sculpture version ^_^
Haha not quite there yet. But thank you for believing!
I am really crushed in things what You do. Its wonderful. I want to be 20 years old again to have Your knowledge and to share. To make crazy things. Now i am 57 years old, workless, i forget my artist career, lockdown here in germany and i am stunned. In germany nobody cares in animation, its not an option, although not in sculpture. My dream always was to animate, to sculpture something. I do some shorts and figures, but nobody cares here in germany. I was the mailman, productutive on a industrial band, be a host on a red mile, selling dildos. And now, the pandemic stops me, what was my dream as i am 20? Here You find me. I have no money i try to figure out my dream as an artist. I have met a giant man, he change my life, and i want to sculpture him as a statue. No money for clay, water or oilbased. I use toiletpaper and wallpaper kleist. Now i see Your videos and other wonderfull videos for formeling good structures. Its so important to have the right material. If You make a sculpture with oilbased Clay You should have the oven in this size. Otherwise You dont do this sculpture. Ok, i have many questions. First to do a sculpture not to need a ofen. Second a clay to be really detailed and its forever. Looking good. And third, can i use childclay, cheaper than the giant clay performers to do a firstcliemer, a prototype?
I would use oil-based clay, no need for an oven, the clay doesn't dry out so it lasts forever.
I found a bug on the nipple and ate
Seems like the only sensible thing to...
Now do feet
You prefer feet? I like sculpting feet! I’ll do a video on feet 😉
