Beginner Level
We will be creating adorable Miniature Clay Mice holding Cheese, Hearts, Flowers, Gifts, Cookies, Cup of Cocoa...anything you want! Polymer Clay Art Sculpture for Beginner level All images and samples have been designed and sculpted by Lori King. In this class, we will work together to learn the steps needed to create each portion of our adorable miniature Mice. Different camera views will be used to show each step of the way. We will condition, cut, roll and form our pieces. Then we will assemble our body parts and get them prepared to be baked after class is over. The supplies are listed below and are necessary to complete the project. Students may prefer to use non-baking clay, which is fine as well. I will go over how to lacquer the clay after baking if the students want a professional, glossy finished look. *Sculpting Medium (any brand/type you prefer. I like to use Sculpey Polymer Bake Clay). *A little clay goes a LONG way in miniature sculpting! Basic cutting tool, toothpick, dotting tool (for eye sockets) A non stick surface to work on (baking paper/parchment paper is great) Variety of colors of polymer clay (at least one mouse color and one accent color for feet, arms, tail) Tiny Black Glass seed beads for eyes (optional). No plastic, just glass. You may use black clay for eyes if you prefer. OPTIONAL: If using baked clay: Clear Water based gloss glaze for after baking (I use Sculpey Gloss Glaze). **Polymer clay requires baking according to the package direction. (Generally ~275 °F/125 °C, depending on your brand of clay). You may do this after class. Parental help is necessary.
