Sugar skulls Workshop

6/16/2019

 
Join me in this wonderful workshop!
Learn to paint Sugar Skulls over a polymer clay faces as well as building your own dolls over a kitchen whisk.
I believe this class will offer the student an opportunity to tap into the subconscious mind, because once you are comfortable with the use of everyday objects and art supplies the task of creating a Sugar Skull Spirit Art Doll becomes almost an intuitive process and the benefits are without question enjoyable.
My workshop and classes are suitable for beginner and intermediate students providing they have some experience with making polymer clay faces from a push mold, if that presents a problem they can buy my kit which I will make available at my Etsy shop.
