Some months ago, was a period when I decided to stop working and to take up a clay modeling course. It's not pottery type of clay but more fun like figurine making like dolls, flowers, tissue box, clocks, music boxes and etc. The centre I went to actually do have a professional artist that specializes in clay design. His art acquires techniques and his precision skill in detail is amazing.
My 1st clay project was to make a tissue box. the box was a ready made box but painted with oil paint for the start. Then I adorned the box with all clay art - pumpkins and leaves, timber fencing and a grey rabbit on top, munching away a tiny pumpkin. I love it to bits. What do you think?

ReplyDeletenah, this is just once off thingy, pooh, tiger, piglet wont get to join him to play after all ;)
ooh, saw ur cousin's site. guess what? where i leaned the clay making techniques, there even chefs and
girls who loke baking came to learn how to make the figurines with clay before they did the icing/fondant.
because the teachnique and the tools are the same, just slightly different texture and fondant you gotta mix
the color with food colouringlar.
am not into baking and i dun have an oven or a microwave... so that will wait. but some months back,
i did try making the tiny babe and fit it into a porcelain china spoon because my m-i-l wanted me to try
if i could do it with the icing too ;) the babe is just like the one i had on my baby shower card on my 1st post
here ;)
Hei!!! very nice. OK...I need your help now. Hope it's not too short notice. I will be going to Singapore for a training on 25th Feb. I want to give something for 2 persons (1 woman and 1 man) who has been supporting us. So, you have anything that I can buy or can you make something? Let me know the cost, please. I will be sharing with Kimberley.
ReplyDeleteWow! Well, it's kinda surprising that you are going to be my 1st client placing oreder through this site it comes through ^_^
ReplyDeleteHmm... it's kinda tricky. I'll need some info to make a better decision on gift ideas for them :
occasion/theme if any?
their occupations?
race & religion?
should the gift be of perishable type or for keep sake?
are the woman and the man a couple?
do they have FB accounts?(can chk them out and perhaps get a better idea what they would like)
and any preference of theirs you've already known.
Btw, I seldom quote price. But usually before I began the my designing or resourcing, I prefer to know client's budget. That way he/she would benefit although I will be making more effort to meet the budget to make him/her an even happier client. (Ehem, self promoting now).
