Watching
a 70's flashback TV show inspired me to make a Garden Troll Baby.
Bernie, my newfie, gladly let me cut some of his hair off and away I
went. I painted in soft colors as I wanted the viewer to have to look
closely to see what it is.
SUPPLIES
Creative Papeclay®
fondant mold
baby face mold
paint
Sandits
I
started by casting the baby face, getting my aluminum foil shaped for
the body and cutting the hair from my dog. Don't worry, it didn't make a
different. He still looks great.
Next, I covered the aluminum foil with clay, cast leaves and flowers in the fondant mold and put them all together.
When I was finished adding all the elements, I made a hole in the head and added the hair.
When it had dried, I sanded edges with Sandits and smooth over some cracks with a clay slurry.
Have fun with art & dream in color!

Where did you get the baby face mold. I've been looking for one like this.
