​
Is there a virtual class?
Not yet, but someday when I get some more time I plan on working out the logistics of some kind of virtual option. There are real important things that are best learned by actually feeling how to do it with your hands. Virtual doesn't quite offer the same caliber of experience as the class provides. yet...

Will we learn how to make flowers? Will we learn how to weatherproof? Will we use chicken wire?
Yes! Yes! NO!

​
Do we get to keep what we make in class? Why are y'all making fish? What are you gonna do with all those fish?
Because of the restriction on time to a 4 hour class, we collaborate on one piece together in a way that allows us to sculpt fast together and complete multiple stages allowing for more techniques to be taught. The form of a fish is used because it's a great form to teach on how to solve multiple types of challenges that can be then later utilized on other types of forms. I have seemed to accumulate a bunch of fish however because of this. Some were donated to the Krewe of Red beans's Hire A Mardi Gras Artist initiative. Some will be completed and painted and decorated and raffled off in this group. Some are available for sale and are priced according to levels of completeness and quality. Some get broken down and the armatures reused in order to save material and space. You could potentially purchase the one from your class if you like. Some were raffled off for Second Harvest with Chef Amy Sins. Once you take the class you'll be able to modify or keep embellishing these fish very easily.
​
**update: fish are now recycled unless purchased, and no longer accumulated. Some other forms besides fish are able to be used for the class if agreed on ahead of time within reasonable size and complexity. **

​
If a space opens up from someone dropping a class can you let me know and add me to that date?
Maybe, but probably not. I don't have a lot of extra time to track all those people down that want me to do this, so please please please just stay tuned to the sign up poll for when I post openings.
