I have learned so much just from watching this short video. I sculpted a head today using this technique, going from memory of watching this a week ago. The head collapsed and l fell short of my goal! But I wanted to try it based on what I learned the first time. Upon watching the second time I see now the mistakes I made and am excited to try again. Thank you for sharing your remarkable talent! I hope to take an online workshop with you soon.

I get such pleasure watching an artist create. What a marvel it is to see such talent displayed. Thank you so much. You gave this ole man a little joy in his somewhat joyless life. I see all the years I had gone and very few ahead so I search for those tidbits of love, art, form, shape, craft, artists, etc etc etc. and you have filled all those needs today...thank you again. What talent you possess. I want to do this craft but I do not have the funds nor the ability to carry on...thank you again. And bless you.

What is the white liquid you brush on the sculpture?

[@craftinamerica]

I believe it is a slip.

Hi please tell me what the last song is!

Toll was für Farbe benützen sie da das weiße?

[@mikebreler9724]

Sorry for the naive question, but is the white liquid you added to the bust a slurry to help visualize that becomes integral to the clay or something else? Thanks

[@craftinamerica]

I believe the white liquid is a slip that adds dimension to the clay's surface
