25 mins in-class hoursHomework
1 hour per week. Please finish your sculpture if it isn't completed in class.Class Experience
In this one time class students will practice sculpting 3-dimensional shapes to make a narwhal. Our sculptures will be tiny but mighty! I will be making my sculpture over a live video feed while students work along with me. I will lead students through each step of the sculpting process. Students are encouraged to ask questions and engage with myself and classmates. This is a great class for practicing fine motor skills, learning about color and shape, and having fun while doing so! No prior experience is necessary, just a willingness to have fun!
Learning Goals
Practice fine motor skills while learning about color and shape.

Parental Guidance
Parents or guardians will need to bake the clay after class so that the sculptures will harden. The package of clay that you purchase will have directions. Most advise 15 minutes per 1/4 inch of clay at 275 degrees.
Note the use of a plastic clay knife during class. These are commonly included with clay sets.
Supply List
Polymer Clay - please have at least white, black, brown, red, yellow, and blue - more colors the better! Plastic Clay Knife

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
I will be teaching a range of art classes for young artists that want to have fun and teen artists that are more serious about their artistic skills. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting and a minor in art history, as well as 2.5 years of classical realism atelier training. I am a full time professional artist and I love to teach! I have been teaching children and adults for the past 5+ years. I believe that having as much artistic training as you can early on will benefit your professional career as an artist. When I'm not painting and teaching, you will find me outside in the mountains. I love to go hiking, camping, and skiing. You might even catch me with my easel outdoors!
