Create and Paint!
Explore the fun and fabulous world of air-dry clay! We will create beautiful 3D objects adorned with nature and botanical mandala designs.
I love working with clay! In this class we dive right in with molding clay with our hands to create beautiful organically shaped bowls and plates. We also use cutting and carving techniques so you can learn my different approaches to working with clay!
I will then share some of my favorite painting methods to paint botanical designs to make your clay pieces even more unique to you!
This class is Episode 9 of the Botanical Mandala Masterclass Series and included in the Masterclass bundles. It is also a perfect companion for my books.
Your Instructor and Creative Guide ❤️
Hello, I am a British mixed-media artist with a passion for color, nature and mandala making.
My intention is to inspire and help creative souls of all ages tap into their muse through my fun and relaxed approach to art-making in my online classes.
My classes include videos, audios, pdf downloads and different techniques. All filmed in my studio in Spain. I have been offering online learning since 2010, and as technology has improved, I am now updating my videos and classrooms to create an easy to use environment for you to enjoy. All classes are self-paced and have lifetime access.
My mission is to create a learning environment online where you feel you are right here in my studio with me, watching lots of demos and working through each project, inspired by what I am showing you to then create on your own.
See you in class! Louise xx
