Sculpt With Polymer Clay: Magical Mushroom Patch
Class experience
In this one hour and thirty minute class we will use a polymer oven bake clay, such as Fimo or Sculpy, to make a magical mushroom patch, filled with moss, grass, a variety of mushrooms and other plants. I will show step by step directions and discuss what I am doing, and share some awesome tips on making a realistic representation of nature. My goal is to get as many mushrooms done in the time of the class, we will be working the entire hour and a half. There is a chance that the students...
Like many art projects, this project will have a lot of problem solving involved.
Homework Offered
Students might need to finish certain details on their own after the class is finished.Assessments Offered
No official assessment, however, I always give positive feedback.Grades Offered
The students will need the following: * Sculpy or Fimo clay in a variety of colors, I suggest two packets for some of the colors: several kinds of green, black, white, brown, orange, yellow, red, blue. Any other color that students prefer. * Soft wire: 16 to 20 gauge is good. * Jewelry wire cutters that are safe and easy to use. * Masking tape! * Basic clay tools. In the absence of the tools, a toothpick, or a large plastic sewing needle will work for most things. Optional - *Mica powder (the shine that you see on my sculpture is done with mica powder). Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have about the materials. I am happy to provide links or photos of the materials upon request.
Note to learners and parents, please be sure to follow instructions when baking the clay. The temperatures for this kind of clay is often quite low (around 250 degrees), and is stated on the clay box or wrapper. Please make sure the learners have the items necessary for the success of this project! This project is one hour and a half, and we will be sculpting the entire time! Younger learners may need assistance warming up the clay prior to the class, as the clay is often quite stiff. In the past, I have used a microwave for about 10 seconds to help with the process, however, manually is the best option. Younger learners may also need assistance baking the clay, and cutting the wire. For this class it is important that we all begin at the same time. If, for any reason, the learner will be delayed by more than 10-15 minutes, please reach out and we can arrange a make up class after the session is finished. Please note, I am happy to hold a class if there is only one student enrolled. I do my best to reach out ahead of the class and make sure that's alright with students and parents. Please reach out if you have any questions.
