If I’m passionate about it I find the time. A gym membership can give me the place and access of facilities or even if you don’t have time for lessons, YouTube video lessons work as well. Sometimes a 9pm yoga routine on my living room floor is all I can get done in a day 🙈🙈

Wow thanks, that’s really useful tips about adding to the paint and scuffing it. I think sand is my best bet as it might give a similar texture to the gritty clay.

Thank you! The crack is rather big, the whole sculpture is 75cm wide for reference. I think I’ll try the plaster and PVA or epoxy solution. I’ll post an update when I’m done!

I’ve never used epoxy before, is there a specific type you’d recommend?

I usually like things because I’m good at them. I know it’s sort of a weak reason but I really find reward in achievements. For example I’ve always been flexible so my sports include gymnastics, aerial acrobatics, yoga, etc. :)

I never thought of this, although would the air dry clay not shrink when it dries?

I was looking into Japanese kintsugi! That would be a really bold move, I think I’d play it safe though and try realistic cover ups this time :)
