They seemed abstract to me and very unrealistic in their shape.  I never really was happy with the original design, even a couple of years ago, and I always knew [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Scarification is the act of creating shallow cuts in the skin to form designs and patterns. What happens is that the cuts would scar up forming bumps in the skin. The many bumps together form a pattern on the body in result creating a form of tribal art. Although scarification is not anything that I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I had put together a little article that outlines some of the key differences between sculpting with wax and polymer clays (http://www.polymerclayfan.com/sculpting-with-wax-vs-polymer-clay.htm).  In hindsight, the review was more of a comparison between sculpting with Super Sculpey and a relatively new wax called  FUSE.  I think it is important to point out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Using Alcohol With Polymer Clay
Rubbing Alcohol is a great tool that is used to help smooth and blend polymer clay when sculpting.  Like the Vaseline tutorial, I have several other tutorials where I give examples on how I use alcohol while sculpting (I&#8217;ve included a few examples at the bottom of this page).  When I first started sculpting I used water [...]]]></description>

Ok, you are probably going to see me jump around a bit during these series. I don&#8217;t like to focus on only one area while I am sculpting, I like to move around a bit so that everything stays fresh. That being said, I have found for me that [...]]]></description>

As strange as it may sound, one of my favorite and most effective sculpting tools is a Q-tip. Q-tips, when soaked in 90% alcohol, are a great tool for smoothing, blending and detailing your sculptures. Before I go into the details on how to use this wonderful [...]]]></description>

Every time I approach a new idea for a sculpture I always look at it as a learning experience. My personal goal is to challenge myself with each new piece. The more I push myself the more my skills grow over time.
