  • Tin foil sculptures are not only simple to achieve, and truly fun. They are also unbelievably sophisticated!
    First off, who are we and why do we love tin foil?
    We’re the Pal Tiya International Crew. Between us we’ve been sculpting for decades and have used every sculpting material on the planet. We just love tin foil. It’s pretty inexpensive, it’s easy to get and it makes for quite a sophisticated sculpting material. In fact, we use tin foil as the core armature for almost every sculpture we make.
    Grab your favorite beverage, go have a seat and let’s dive into how to do foil art.

    I was truly amazed by the versatility of tinfoil when I discovered its many uses. As someone who enjoys creating miniature objects, I was pleasantly surprised by how well tinfoil worked for my projects. It is truly a versatile material that can be shaped, molded, and manipulated in various ways. Whether I am creating miniature furniture or tiny food items, tinfoil has proven to be an essential tool for adding detail and dimension to my creations. The fact that it is easily accessible and inexpensive makes it even more appealing to me. I have also come across some amazing videos showcasing the endless possibilities of using tinfoil in arts and crafts. These videos have inspired me to push my creativity and explore new techniques with this versatile material. I am grateful for this discovery and I can't wait to see what other amazing things I can create with tinfoil in the future.

We have a whole online school coming if you’re interested where we will be using many methods, foil included. You can find out more here: artfulawareness.thinkific.com/pages/coming_soon

    Thank you so much! I've used a scrunched up ball to fill out heads when I'm using my polymer clay but that's as far as I got and this is a whole new level. I wanted to try a rhinoceros and was thinking I have to buy fine mesh to go over the wire armature and how do I close it to make a smooth body and it's not that cheap where I've been looking. This solves everything, no extra money spent and a whole lot of time and sanity saved. I was going off the idea but now I'm enthused again.

    • @PalTiya
      @PalTiya  3 роки тому

      This is GREAT to hear! Wow, that's just so neat. Thanks for sharing your win with us. And if you want to put it outside at any point in the future, you can cover it with our sculpting medium Pal Tiya Premium and you'll have a very cool outdoor Rhino :)
