Sculpting Kwamis: A Self-Paced Course for Sculptors with some experience 🌟 Kwamis are mystical, fairy-like creatures that grant superpowers to their Miraculous wielders, transforming them into animal-themed superheroes in the popular French animated series Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir. In this advanced sculpting course, students will learn to sculpt 8 miniature Kwamis, each unique in design and detail, using audio and video lessons combined with step-by-step guides. This is not a very beginner sculpting class. The parts are small and require intricate details, making it ideal for those with prior sculpting experience. Course Highlights: Self-Paced Learning: No live meetings—work at your own pace and access lessons anytime. Nearpod Platform: Interactive and engaging lessons with video, audio, and visual aids. Detailed Step-by-Step Guides: Break down the sculpting process into manageable segments. Focus on Detail: Learn to sculpt each Kwami with accurate details, bringing their magical essence to life.

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.

*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.
