2 Day Workshop

In this workshop students will learn how to sculpt a gnome head and pair of hands on a wire armature.

The process of sculpting this 9-11 inch gnome is taught step-by-step; from constructing a wire armature to sculpting a head and hands in polymer clay. By the end of two days students will have a finished armature with a baked head and pair of hands, ready to paint. (Given enough time, students will bake and paint their sculpted heads in class)
