Mold a Face

Vicky Phelps
Thursday 27 August – Evening

Three hour workshop using a variety of face moulds and different types of clay and quick setting resin and paint

With this workshop we will start with a demonstration on making a face mould, and then everyone will use moulds to make faces that can be connected to antique dominos, old tins or paint brushes. Play with paper clay or polymer clay and embed wires, beads, buttons, nails or any doodads. Make wings or faces with quick setting resin, or moulded pieces. Line tins with quick setting resin sheets, build layers and decorate.

Use epoxy clay, cold connections, chain or beads to assemble a fun piece. Paint and dry brush to tie project together and embellish with some coloured wax. Only limited by your imagination.
