How do I make a large clay sculpture?

February 4th, 2010 by

I want to make a lifesize sculpture of my dog that I can have a concrete mould made from for a garden statue. Can someone tell me what materials I should use? Like, what kind of clay, what should I use for the bulk of the sculpture, etc? I’ve made small clay sculptures, but never anything on such a large scale….I don’t think sculpey is what I’m going to need. ;o)
okay, so I would need to use an air drying clay, not one that needs to be baked or fired?

How do I take care of water-based oil paintings?

February 1st, 2010 by

I executed several water-based oil paintings (using Artisan by Winsor and Newton) in 2003. I never varnished them. They are now displayed on a wall, no direct sunlight but a little dust unavoidable, in a humid tropical climate (25 to 40 C range). At the time I was painting, there was no local advice on how to treat water-based oils as it was a new medium.

Is it possible to remove a crease or fold from a watercolor painting?

January 31st, 2010 by

The painting is on watercolor paper. The painting was folded in 3 places. One of the folds has cracked the paint but only when you bend it towards the fold.

I was thinking I could wet the back and possibly iron it?

Thanks in advance,

Does a sculpture have to have certain dimensions?

January 23rd, 2010 by

I have learned many rules in my 3D class, like inside and outside space, and interest from all angles. I feel confined and I wonder if any sculptors can help me. Can a two-dimensional object with an inch of depth hanging be a sculpture? What are the guidelines you have for yourselves? Thank You for Sharing!
