Instructions:
1.Get a wooden stand.
2.Wrap two pieces of A3 paper around it to form a basic head and neck shape.
3.Add small pellets of clay over the paper until completely covered.
4.Add details eg. chin, nose and ears but remember proportions.
5.Firing-Take the clay off the wooden stand and place in a Kiln*
6.The paper will burn away and you will be left with a firm shape.
Facts:
1.Once the clay is joined into a sphere it becomes a strong 3D shape.
2.The red clay we use is called 'Terracotta'.
3.The clay piece can be cast or fired.
4.Casting-Make a plaster mould then pour bronze* into it.
Keywords:
*Kiln: A Kiln is a an oven that goes up to 1000 degrees which is a great deal more than a normal household oven which reaches a mere 250 degrees.
*Bronze: A liquid metal.
