Students used a combination of materials to make these Peter Diem inspired models.

The Body & Head:
Air dry clay was used to form the body. Students formed a small pinch pot into a rounded shape, pulling and shaping legs so that it would stand. The head is using paper clay like Crayola Model Magic over a cork.


Paper clay / Model Magic is formed into thin rolls or shapes and pressed onto the body to add pattern, colour and TEXTURE.
