How to Moid a Sculpture
First, clean the clay by getting rid of the bits of sand and dirt from it. Then add or
remove water from the clay if necessary. If the clay is too wet, it will not hold a shape.
And if it is too dry, it will not be flexible enough to mold. Next begin to shape the clay
into something with your bare hands or with foois. Roli and push clay into shapes or
pull off and stick back on different places. After the clay has been molded, put it into
a kind of oven to be fired. Then, build a fire. As the fire slowly gets hotter and hotter
water is baked out of the clay. Sooner or later, the clay dries up and becomes hard
with a new shape. Remove it from the oven and let it cool. Afterwards, you may paint
it or put some desians of your choice on it.
