Sculpting with Paper Clay: Memento Statuettes

Paper clay features minimal dry shrinkage and strong wet-joining properties making it ideal for sculpting. Learn the basics of handbuilding with paper clay while creating figurative, abstract or architectural forms to enshrine a special memento, photograph or found object in this class. Begin by creating a maquette of your design from cardboard or tarpaper. Then pieces will be constructed with basic handbuilding techniques such as slabs and coils while incorporating textural surface designs or direct carving to create depth and interest. Pieces can be finished with colored slips and underglazes to produce a more dynamic surface treatment.
