Pat's Work of Art...

On Wednesday, Cynthia, Ning and I went to attend a cluster course on the use of Polymer Clay in Art & Craft.. it was held in our school, so I thought, what the heck. Just attend lah (Although we all didn't manage to finish marking our books, but decided that we should just go regardless...)

After the talk of the FIMO clay, and the difference between this and the conventional white clay, we got started. Cynthia suggested that I did a bride and groom for our wedding, which I thought "why not?". And so, I got my hands started...

WHat you see below here is my attempt at making the bride... What do you think? Seriously, I think that the use of Polymer Clay is a very good way of allowing pupils to be creative, because it is super mouldable, and pupils really need to be able to imagine and think in 3D for the figure that they want to create... Look at my bride.. Simple as it may look, it actually took me close to 2 hours to complete it... *Phew* After that, I told the trainer "I feel as if I have been in labour and just finished giving birth man..." Haha. The moment the figuring was sent into the oven for baking, it felt as though the labour pains were finally over. Haha haha...

What do you think? I thought it was not bad an attempt for the first time.. Look at the detailing.. on the hair and all..even the bouquet of flowers.. haha I mus say I'm quite proud of myself...

View from the side. I know, from this angle, it's a bit awkward... hee hee. but still quite cute right?

From the top. Look at the tran on the gown. Still got pattern some more k.. Dun pray pray.. haha. Side View... I think it's really cute.. =P

Well, hearing that I was getting married soon, the trainer also decided to "challenge" herself, and got started making a bride and groom figurine, which she decided to give to me in the end. Hee hee.. (By the way, she only took like 30 minutes to complete both the figures..)

I thought the groom looked a teeny weeny bit weird.. can't put my finger to the exact problem though. hehee.. From the back.
And that's me! =) Hee hee.. I think mine looks nicer.. bleah. =o
