Nice work 🙏 I started messing around with air dry clay recently still learning but it’s a relaxing hobby

I used to sculpt in my 20s. But never could do anything with the end result so I threw them away. Most studios taught pottery so I never developed this talent. I eventually gave up. That was almost 30 yrs ago. Watching your videos, I see resolutions for all my previous barriers. I’m excited to start up again. I will definitely check out your website and courses.

you definitely should! sculpting is difficult and takes time to learn but I think most people would be surprised how fast they can improve with good instruction and focusing on the right things when developing the sculpture. My grandma always gave the excuse that she couldn't do art because one of her kids swallowed a paint tube when he was little. Her youngest moved out over 50 years ago. She's 95 and still hasn't gotten back into it and deeply regrets it. Creative people have to make time for creativity or else the time just passes and we wish we would have done more.

Hebel is an alternative. It's aerated cement blocks. It's ver soft you can saw it, rasp it, even scrape off layers with a spoon. Another thing to mention is that you can sculpt in say oil based clay then cast it in something else, and you can cast it hollow to make it have a far lighter weight. You can even do it in fibreglass.

A lovely piece. Lovely figure, and the birds are great too. Chickens are surprisingly unique looking creatures which we sometimes lose appreciation for because of their “ordinariness”.

it's just some black sheets I got from Walmart ($20) and some hardware from the dollar tree to hang them up on some curtain hangers I mounted in my studio space. Then I use some cheap soft boxes that I got for $100 on eBay for the lighting setup.

Could you tell me the benefit of the e poxy

Hi thx for a great video.....just wondering , when do we need to remove armature before firing it....seems like you fired it with armature inside still?

@AndrewJosephKeith

This clay (polymer clay) can be baked in a normal oven and can be baked with the armature inside. ceramic clays cannot be baked with armatures inside.

This was a commissioned sculpture. For a unique original sculpture that price isn’t unreasonable. Also in a gallery setting that price is not that high (depending on the gallery)

very nice video, not sure why it doesn't have more views!
