As someone who has sculpted and worked with clay in the past, this is incredible. It's something that comes with time. Making mistakes and working through them. Getting so far, then totally starting over. Having the wrong expression and changing it. This person has been doing this for quite some time. This is a learned skill, but you have to have patience and put in the work. Tiger Woods didn't wake up one day and become a great golfer. It's the THOUSANDS of hours on the practice greens and driving ranges. It's the time someone puts into something that make them great. So, to anyone who wants to do this, get your ass out there and do it. Get all the supplies you need, set aside a few hours per day, or per week and learn the skills. It's something that doesn't just stay with you either, you need to keep up your skills and stick with it. I hope there are more people out there who do this. It's a dying art, in my humble opinion. It has inspired me to get back into it. I already have too many irons in the fire, but what's one more. It's such a calming thing to do as well. Put on some peaceful music and create! Well done. Thank you Philippe. You are a great artist. I enjoyed watching you work.

How wonderful it was to watch you creating. I really admire your skill and your ability to work with clay. Astonishing! Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings.

That was so beautiful, I just recently started to dabble into sculpturing and I’m so amazed at how much I love it! Thank you for sharing such an inspirational and beautiful video.

For me the most fascinating part was when you started to change her expression. Thank you for sharing your amazing art.

This is incredible, you're truly an inspiration for artists everywhere. Thank you.

Best video I've seen yet of the whole process...allows one more confidence..especially when you know you can and can see the vision in your mind and just knowing that it's confirmed here as to what you thought you could do yourself, it's amazing ...thank you so much for this time and process...just love it.

You are incredibly talented. It was a great honor to watch you work. Very cool to see two portraits in one with the hair and expression change. Also very impressive gallery behind you!

OMG! I am blown away. I think I need to look into learning this. Thank you Philippe.

Beautiful piece. Really amazing work. You're incredibly talented! Thanks for the video !

So this madlad just finished a super good sculpture and was like, "NOPE, I'll change it" and made it a more challenging one You, sir, are amazing.

Amazing! Everyone is beautifully made by the Grand creator ! This shows the love and skill that it was done with. You have developed a amazing gift! Thank you for the video!

OMG I'm speechless girl you are gifted, thank you for showing off such amazing work. Do you teach people how to do what you just did? You are the best wow again thank you!!! 💕 ❤️ 🏆 💐 👍

this is bloody beautiful. Ive been trying to learn this and it is almost frustrating to watch a pro effortlessly put forth such a wonderful piece. Keeps one motivated! gotta keep practicing !

Amazing work as always! Such an incredible piece!

This is the Best I've seen so far, No chit-chat, Just what I was looking for from start to finish. Thank you Sir.

Exellent great sir, you reminded me of my time when I used to make sculptures too. I am also a sculptor. But due to lack of space, I stopped working. Seeing your work I remembered my days

És um artista! Trabalho muito bem feito nos mínimos detalhes, desde a argila sendo moldada, à cópia de resina e gesso e a réplica em gesso, você conseguiu passar o sentimento a sua arte, o modelo exala alegria... Dá gosto de ver, não perdi um único detalhe de seu vídeo. Meus parabéns!

Que trabalho lindo!!! Só nascendo com o dom mesmo pra fazer algo assim!!!! Parabéns !!!!!

One of the most beautiful things I have ever watched!

Просто фантастика! Великолепный мастер! Отличное видео! Браво, маэстро! 👏❤️

Fiquei emocionada ao assistir, maravilhada pela beleza e talento! Obrigada por compartilhar teu trabalho. Magnífico!

C'est un grand bonheur de vous voir sculpter, merci de nous le partager !

What incredible skill and work Philippe! I'm a fan.

Stunning .... I am lost for words. An amazing skill.

This video is really helpful. I've been fallowing your channel for a long time and I've just recently started sculpting busts and I've found your videos to be incredibly inspiring. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skill. :)

I spent all day today working on a silicone mold like this for my bust. Nice coincidence to see you post this. Harder than it looks.

Wonderful skill This talent demands TOTAL dedication It's apparent

This is a fascinating way of saving your progress physically, make a mold to instantly cast new sculptures from.

Браво, Мастер! Это- чудо!

It is so satisfying to watch you work. Your artistic skills are awe inspiring. Thank you for sharing!

I dont know what happened to me Philippe... but I was just watching you sculpting and it made me very emotional. You have a beautiful work, thank you for the inspiration.

Capturing the natural beauty of a lady soooooo well.

This might be the most satisfying thing I've ever seen.

Amazing, brilliant, skillful. Its a blessing you have.

Fascinating process, and great skill shown. Inspiring. Thank you.

Great video, as always. These are especially nice to see uploaded at times like these, when we cannot get out to classes.

This dude just slaps it and suddenly it looks good. How.

Omg it all makes sense now on how its a process, thanks for the great explanation!! Love your work!

Just awesome skill, seriously, mesmerizing! And beautiful. Thank you for creating!

Incrível! Muito bom! Faz parecer tão fácil que dá vontade de tentar fazer

In my country, only students who major in portrait drawing or a mannequin craftsmen can do such a job properly. Few illustrators and comic artists have knowledge and experience of academic portrait drawing. Everyone draws anime and manga with the motif of anime and manga. You guys love manga and anime, but I admire the advanced skills of American illustration and comics.

What a beautiful job. Wonderful, thanks for sharing your art. Cheers

Such a delight watching you work!!!

That was amazing, I would love to be able to afford a bust of me to be done but the time and expertise needed is probably way beyond my price range but your video was fascinating and you are very skilled at what you do. Thank you for sharing

Amazing

Que habilidade maravilhosa Philippe Faraut! Belos traços e delicadeza na colocação e retirada de material. fantástico!

I think this is just very clever,such a skill,knowhow,and the outcome is amazingly beautifull!

I would love to be able to create something like this. Beautiful

as a 16 year old beginner sculptor this is just so amazing to me and you're really inspiring

Here is a man that can make what I can't even draw.... Unreal! You are very talented sir and I loved watching your video. Thank you for sharing

Once you built the structure and anatomy like a piece of cake, I'm totally amazed, then you show us it's shaped from reference photo, I'm speechless

Wow-thank you for this, Philippe!

Шикарно!!! Брависсимо!!!!

IM AN ARTIST STUDENT OUR SCHOOL GAVE US SCULPTING COURSES BUT THEY DONT TEACH US THIS. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I APPRECIATE THIS A LOT!!!

It’s great fun to watch you sculpting!

My Lord this video is bealtiful. Meu Senhor isto é lindo. Abraço a todos.

Manificent!!!! 😮 please may i ask a demo of a horse head... like the one in the back ground? your talent is Wow!!!!

Thank you for teaching clay moulding live. Highly inspirational.

Incredible. Thank you. A pleasure to watch.

Thank you so much ! You have no idea how much I appreciate the fact that you would share the knowledge you have with me. I’m sure others feel the same. I am not in the position of being able to leave out to go seek classes but it’s something I have a great desire to do. Do you have an email address or website ? I’d like to inquire about classes over the web. 😊

Simplesmente lindo, perfeito 😍

Love seeing the whole process it was done. Great work! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Uno de los mejores videos que he visto, sobre Escultura, me ayudó mucho, gracias 🤗 saludos desde Ica-Perú 🇵🇪

Wonderful! The final bust reminded me the young Italian actress Gaia Girace.

Hi, Philippe , do you start laying shellac and making a mold when the clay is still fresh or after it is dry and hard? Or do you wait for hardening a silicon layer before putting another layer? Is the clay you used reusable yet? Thank you for this movie, hypnotizing!

Amazing! Very delightful, the imaginary the passion beautiful piece!

Incredably talented! Love it!

waw, just amazing

one of my goals is to make a statue, thank you for this video!

Perfecto ,maravilloso .....siempre es un verdadero placer verte trabajar. Enhorabuena Un saludo Maestro

7:01 Well done for the sculpture and the video, different fields but excellent in both! A role model for all young artists, the art of doing and showcasing 👌

Sir, do you still remember when did you start sculpting? What age?

It would be nice to do a sculpture of Sylvia Likens in remembrance.

I’ve often wondered at how this I’d done Thankyou for such detail I love it Breathtaking 😍

Great work. Please continue to make more videos. I find to satisfying and relaxing to watch. God bless you

philippe faraut: "im also changing the age and expression"... reality can be whatever i want!

Awee. Now I can't stop imagining how God made us through clay with all of these complex organs and systems.

I VERY DEEPLY APPRECIATE YOUR ART WORK AS MYSELF ALSO HAVE INTEREST IN ART WORK, THIS IS GOD GIFTED SKILL YOU HAVE

The xenomorph egg sac you made at around 9:20 was a work of art in itself

1:18 You made Lenin!

The lip line on the lower is too short, giving the appearance of abnormally large maxillary central incisors .

You have a wonderful touch with those wooden tools. I have a couple of your books. Thanks.

Это нереально трудоёмкая работа! Талантище!

7:34 I'll let you know honey...

I feel even more useless after watching this. How so talented?

Потрясающая работа! Огромное спасибо! Прекрасный урок!

Truly a master at work!!

Your art work is so unreal your art work is alive so welldone its like the women are alive wow.do you lifecast too???.

Must feel weird when it starts to resemble a real face, like you're touching someone's face or something haha

It's like building someone to life. Incredible ❤️

This was so satisfying to watch!

We can understand the meaning of life whatching the video. The process of creation. Congratulations!
