My father in law had his 70th birthday yesterday. So I made something as a gift. He is a big Cleveland Browns fan and this little elf came right to mind. This has been a Cleveland Browns logo of sorts since the beginning of the franchise and a fan favorite.

Hello World! These little guys here are what I like to call Roley-Poleys! They are little colorful spheres with big, adorable eyes and three or four little spherical feet. These ones are a banana split, the Ohio state flag, a sprout emerging from the dirt, and a watermelon respectively.

I like to make these little cuties to get the juices flowing when I’m in a creativity block. I also like to share this for those who think that making clay figures is too difficult for them. All it really takes is a few minutes to make a couple of spheres and you can make something adorable and eye-catching in no time at all!

As always, I would love for any suggestions on what to sculpt next!

Hello World! These grotesque things staring deep into your soul are a creation of mine that I like to call: GROSS HEADZ! This is a perfect arts and crafts project for your Halloween decorating needs.

The fractured head part is simple. Find a ping pong ball and cover it with a thin layer of clay. Then, after finishing the face, place it in the oven. While in the oven, the air in the ping pong ball will rise and cause the head to burst. Then, you can paint the fracture with red paint. And boom! You have yourself a gross head.

As always, I would love for any suggestions on what to sculpt next!

Hello World! Welcome to Crypto Clay. I am both a sculptor and a cryptocurrency enthusiast. My medium of choice is Sculpey brand clay. Ever since I was ten years old, I have loved making little knick-knacks out of clay to express myself.

Posts will be periodic, at least one a week, and will feature photos of my latest creations. This week is Coronachan, the internet-created waifu visualizing the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Due to this pandemic, I was laid off from my job. But thanks to my lovely wife, I have used this time to improve myself both professionally and creatively.

I would love for any suggestions on what to sculpt next!
