NEW NEW NEW If you have taken class with me and want to
interact with other students or get some feedback, click in
over to the message board tab and post. I'll be doing some
small free mini-classes there from time to time.... Be the
first to know. I will be announcing classes via the mailing
list before they are posted to facebook and twitter or
otherwise advertised link on Contact Me page.
In 2009 I began teaching sculpting beginning as a guest at
FaerieCon and since including online tutorials for Custom
Dolls Houses and Miniatures (CDHM.org), in magazines, and
as a guest in stores and galleries. Here is where you can
find info on upcoming classes and articles and how to
register. I take a very explorative approach to teaching
the craft. So often learning a new technique can be
intimidating and crush the excitement to create. In class
we try to set a tone of playfulness and exploration, and
the results are magical! People who had never touched clay
before come up with the most wonderful and creative pieces.
This is what I hope to teach in my classes. The joy of
exploring your own creativity and some skills to work the
medium so you can accomplish this! Here are a few pictures
of work from a recent basic sculpting class. Most of these
folks had tried this sort of thing before and their work
was glorious.
