E-Class Description & Lesson Plan

This is an instant download with pdf's and videos to guide you to making Frida...

Frida is a sitter style art doll with an airdry clay face, weighted base and is suitable for all skill levels of sewing and sculpting. I will walk you through the process of sculpting and fully painting the doll. You will also spend some time learning how to creatively alter fabric and then make this into the clothing for the doll. There is the lesson on creating a wig for Frida, making the flower crown, and finally, making a little airdry clay bird to sit on her arm.

Part 1: sewing, weighting, stuffing, and attaching the sewn body parts plus sculpting the head.

Part 2: sculpting the shoulder plate, neck and attaching. Underpainting the stuffed body. Painting the face and body and shoes

Part 3: printing the fabric, making the flowers, and sewing and attaching the clothing.

Part 4: Making the wig, crown of flowers, sculpting and painting the bird and embellishing to finish.
