About
The Sculpture School is recognised as Britain’s leading centre for mastering the art of figurative sculpture. Our courses, led by world-renowned master sculptor Andrew Sinclair MRSS, offer an inspiring insight into the methods and tools needed to create breathtakingly realistic figures and animals. His most recent public commissions include the David Bowie sculpture ‘The Earthly Messenger’ unveiled in Aylesbury March 2018 and the Duke of Wellington’s ‘Regimental Memorial Sculpture’ unveiled in Halifax May 2019.
Unique to The Sculpture School is the ‘Sinclair Method’ of sculpture, designed by Andrew himself. This innovative method incorporates Design Criteria TM, anatomy and proportion using Dynamic Energy Curves and The Rapid Sketch Technique. Whatever your ability, this ground-breaking system will revolutionise the way you approach sculpture by breathing life and energy into your work. Using methodology devised by Andrew, you will develop the skills to create stunning works of art. Whether you are a novice or professional we will help unleash your talent and take your skills to the next level.

Map & Directions
Road Directions
We are located on the main A3124 North Tawton to Winkleigh road, and The Sculpture School is on the left-hand side of the road, opposite the only house (cream) on this hilly switchback road! If you are approaching from the A30, exit at Whiddon Down and follow all the signs to North Tawton and Winkleigh (but don’t go into North Tawton itself). There is a T-junction after the metal bridge with North Tawton in front of you. Turn left at this T-junction. Turn right after the bridge by the mill, towards Winkleigh. Turn right after a mile or so, signposted to Winkleigh, then almost immediately left on the A3124 towards Winkleigh. After the large wind turbine by the Honeychurch sign, you will see our house as you come down the hill situated just after the chevronned z-bend. The Sculpture School is on the left almost opposite the house.
Whatever you do, do not allow sat-nav to take you down tiny single track lanes with grass down the middle!
