  • ****PLEASE NOTE: I get many emails and comments regarding the type of clay used. *** It is WHITE EARTHEN CLAY, LOW FIRE, NO GROG MANUFACTURED BY HIGHWATER. YOU CAN PURCHASE THE CLAY FROM ANY CERAMIC SUPPLY HOUSE. :)

    I thank everyone for the wonderful comments about the video, and it is increasingly difficult to allocate time for response. Again ... thanks for your views and comments! ~Peace & Love

  • WHATS THE NAME OF THE CLAY THAT U USE

  • @olipimp

    've answered that question in earlier comment responses ... please read below. ;)

  • hay man!! ive got a question.... did you start of with just news paper to fill the hollow clay structure? cause ive been trying to do that but my problem is that the clay would soak the news paper and sometimes sag. and how do you remove the news paper afterwards. ive another question how do you prevent air bublees inside the clay that would break the sculpture when you heat it in the kiln.??

  • @wakojako49

    I address those issues in my full length instructional video: How to Sculpt the Portrait in Clay

    You can order the video from my website.

  • Hi This was great. Can you show us how to fire this when you are finished with a head sculpture.

  • @jab060154

    I prep my work, and take it to a potter I trust who has a kiln. There are many videos posted you YouTube to answer your questions. ;)

  • @LeGrandSculpture Answering may save us time for browsing that particular comment below. I was about to ask the same question, now i'm discouraged to search for that comment wherever that is. It could've been much easier if you have only answered. No offense.
