Paper clay


Today I started to work on some heads in paper clay. I haven’t worked with that type of clay before so I wasn’t prepared for how fast it dried. I had to sculpt them really fast because the surface was dry in just a few minutes. They are really tiny, only 5 centimeters and featureless. I plan to paint them and use vintage photos for their faces. Have to wait until they are entirely dry though. I am not sure whether or not I will make fabric bodies and turn them into dolls. I’ll take a step at the time and see how they turn out.

Take care
Jeanette
