Polymer Clay Sculpting: Animals

In this ongoing class students will practice sculpting 3-dimensional shapes to make various animals. Each class will feature a different animal. We will be taking our time on each piece, so if you enjoy getting very detailed with your work then this is the class for you! There will be a live video stream showing students step by step how to make each item. Since these sculptures are made with polymer clay, parents or guardians can bake the sculptures for students after class so that they harden. This is a fun opportunity for students to experiment with color and sculpting. No prior experience is necessary, just a willingness to have fun! During class we will each share the progress on our sculptures to receive feedback. 

A new animal will be introduced each week for sculpting.
