Workshops: Father Christmas

In this three-day (or optional four-day) workshop, polymer clay artist, Diane Troutman will teach you her Santa making process to create your very own 25" Father Christmas similar to the Santa she created on the HGTV television show "That's Clever". The first day will focus on sculpting a Santa head. The second day you will learn how to sculpt hands over a wire armature. The third day will be spent creating a robed style canvas body, attach the hands and complete and attach the Santa's head (note: this style of Santa does not have legs). Diane will also demonstrate her bearding techniques and provide patterns for costuming your Santa at home. On an option fourth day you will create your Santa's costume including a robe, gown and hat and have the opportunity to beard your Santa. No prior sculpting experience required. Sewing will be done on the optional fourth day of the workshop.
