The sculpting ability of Leroy Transfield is unparalleled. His gift of putting sensitivity in a piece inspires both layman and professional. Any true student of sculpture can only benefit from what he has to share.
Andrew Joseph Keith
Leroy Transfield is a co-founder of the Figure Sculptors United competitions and I definitely have a lot to learn from him. I love to watch Leroy work and I’m in awe at how quickly he is able to form the clay. His expertise in water based clay and his knowledge of the figure really shows through in his work.

Taking lessons from Leroy will always be at the top of my artistic experiences. As a full time painter my life is saturated by art and it takes a lot to take my breathe away. Watching Leroy sculpt, studying a master of that caliber execute his craft is truly awe inspiring. Every movement his hands make is relevant to his process, his sculpting instruction is concise and clear. Highly recommended.
