In the final installment of Johanna Schwaiger’s first series at New Masters Academy, she makes decisions about the composition of the portrait. She sculpts a distinct set of plane changes at the sternum to distinguish the anatomy from the classical bust structure.
The neck muscles and trapezium is sculpted, the eyes finished, and the brows laid above the eyes.
