NOTE: Students may use air dry clay if the prefer not to use polymer bake clay In this course, we will work together to learn the steps needed to create each portion of our clay creations. 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 projects. I will go over how to lacquer the clay after baking if the students want a professional, glossy finished look. Students will personalize their creations to look however the wish after the basic structures are complete! Each week, we will sculpt one Cutie Style Animal, including: Snake Panda Zebra Tiger Lion Supplies Needed to complete the projects: Polymer Bake Clay or Other Modeling Compound (any brand you prefer, for reference I use Sculpey III) Basic Sculpting tools, toothpick or pointed tool, small rolling pin or paintbrush handle, dotting tool (for eye sockets) A Baking sheet covered with parchment or baking paper (don’t bake directly on it) A non stick surface to work on Variety of colors of clay (green, orange, yellow/tan, brown, white and black) A few wooden toothpicks cut in half (needed for structure) OPTIONAL: Clear Water-Based Gloss Polyurethane or Sculpey Gloss Glaze for after baking **Polymer clay requires baking according to the package direction. (Generally ~275 °F, depending on your brand of clay). You may do this after class. Parental help is necessary. If students miss a day, the recording will be available in the classroom for them to create on their own time.

Hi There!
I'm Lori...a graduate of F.I.T in NYC. I've worked in different areas of the design industry since 1991, from illustration, pattern making, garment construction to designing full story boards for buyers. I tutored Fashion Illustration for a few years to help other students complete their professional portfolios before their interviews. Besides getting creative, I LOVE animals! I have quite a few furry little beasts. Right now, my profession is Graphic Design, but fashion illustration and design is still what I do when I need to unwind from technology. I believe that once you learn the basics of how to get that creativity out of your mind and onto paper, you open up a whole new world, being able to share and build on your talents.

As an alumni of Cleveland Institute of Art with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Game Design they have a passion for interactive art and how they can push the boundaries of what interactive art means. Having been a visual arts assistant at their old high school Interlochen Arts Academy during the summers, teaching others and seeing the joy in what people create has motivated Rori to pursue teaching. In their free time Rori likes to aquascape. Creating aquariums of any variety of sizes and making little beautiful habitats for their favorite type of fish a Betta fish, they currently have 2 bettas and 4 tanks.

*Ms. Robinson
She/Her
Throughout my career in education, I have developed a strong foundation for fostering creativity and critical thinking among students. I have had the privilege of designing and implementing art programs that engage learners and inspire them to explore their unique artistic voices in many afterschool programs since 2019. My extensive experience across various mediums—such as painting, yarn and needlework, jewelry making, and digital arts—has equipped me with the versatility to adapt my teaching methods and cater to diverse learning styles.
*Teacher Jonathan
I have been working in the design/visual arts world for the last 6 years. From designing websites, to doing personal commissions, art is something I’m very passionate about. I had the chance to live in New York for the last 3 years, and had the opportunity to visit world-renowned museums and galleries such as The Met, MoMA, Guggenheim etc. I also curated an Art Gallery with over 200 artworks from local artists in upstate NY. I’m thrilled to bring my experience to these lessons and share that enthusiasm with my students.Reviews
