This is the first sculpture that I
made. She is made from Sculpt-a-Mold
and plaster of Paris. She was to be a mermaid, but I used her in a shop for
display. After sculpting her and discovering how messy plaster of Paris and
Sculpt-a-Mold is, I searched for other materials and found polymer clay. It
is now my preferred sculpting material. Unfortunately, it must be cured in
an oven and I have not found an oven big enough to make life-size
sculptures.
Recently I have discovered Cold Porcelain Paste.
I love the way it works for the final coat on large sculptures. It air dries, shrinks about 10%, very,
very smooth and so far I have not had any cracking as with other air dry
clays. It is very durable as well
and I when I make something small enough to fit in a regular size kitchen
oven, I also heat cure it to be sure it hardens as much as possible. I look forward to experimenting with this
product.
