Introduction to Paltiya
This class benefit those who are interested in an easy to use sculpture media to create 3D substrates that does not require molds, kilns or heavy armature. Pal Tiya works like clay that air hardens as concrete to create 3-D substrates that can be placed in and outdoors. Your armature can be made with cardboard and tin foil, perfect for beginners and great fun for intermediate students that want to push for more complex forms. Participants will learn the basics of Pal Tiya mixing, by creating a small armature and covering it with the first layers of Pal Tiya. Additionally, you will receive information about tooling, sanding and finishes. Participants will have 3lb of material to experiment during the class and add more details later at their home. You can add more layers as you desire it doesn’t have a time constrain making it better than concrete and less heavy. Most of the class will be hands-on and other parts will have images of processes and finishes. I have been teaching sculpture for more than 20 years at all age-group levels and this material is far one of my favorite mediums, easy to manipulate, strong and once cured for a week for indoors and 28 days for outdoor in any weather and you can add mosaic to its surface.
This calss is available for groups or individually in my Atlanta studio or i can travel to teach the class as well. Please fill up the contact form for more details.
