Sculpting With Clay
Clay Shapers can be used for
lots of things...such as smoothing
marks away and to carve patterns
into glaze or clay. I use mine mostly
for sculpting, the small ones are especially good for working on a small
scale! They come in several sizes and
different strength tips. The black tips
are the firmest, grey are medium
strength and white are soft. These
are my main “go to” tools...the horse
on the next pages was done near
enough entirely with the clay shapers!
Mini Sculpting Tools
are probably my favourite
tools to use! They’re teeny! I
added the pencil in the pic
so you can see just how small
they are! I use these and the
clay shapers above most often! They’re especially good
for sculpting faces on a small
scale or for adding texture and
carving small beads.
Stiff Bristle Brushes
are great for adding texture
to beads and for animal fur on
pendants etc. You can also use
toothbrushes!
