Class Description:
This is the ultimate Mouse Class. From the basics to the last details,
learn how to use a variety of clays in a variety of ways as you build a
super strong yet posable epoxy armature, model a mouse in polymer and bring
it to life with texture and a touch of paint. Follow that experience with a
side trip to the world of costume design and create your own texture
sheets, dabble with paints and powders, experiment with pencils and prints,
manipulate large image transfers and small decals as you build a library of
clay cloth samples all with one purpose--to send your mouse out into the
world dressed in a fine and fancy outfit.

Katherine will provide:
Workbook, armature materials,
Mouse Clay, a modicum of clay for clay cloth, pencils, paints,
powders, tons of transfers, tape measure. She will also provide
modeling tools for the students to use in class including
texture sheets, texture samples for designing texture sheets,
texture clay and other sundry stuff as you can never have too
much stuff.
Students are asked to bring:
Needle nose pliers, pasta
machine or roller (both would be nice), 1-3 six inch ceramic
tiles, sharp scissors, exacto knife (with new blade), Fimo Gel,
4 oz. White Premo or Kato, and 1-2 oz each of a variety of
colored clays of their choosing to experiment and explore fabric
design. Katherine recommends at least one metallic and one
pearl be included, two paint brushes (#4 shader, #0 or 00 fine
detail brush) with other brushes of the student's choice
optional (ya never know), and note taking materials.
Students who have a heat gun are
asked to bring it to class. |
