Step-by-step guide to making an Eco-friendly Ganesh idol with art world Natural Clay

Jul 21, 2024 |

Creating an Eco-friendly Ganesh idol involves using art world natural, biodegradable materials to minimize environmental impact. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

 

Materials Needed:

1 Art world natural  Clay  Avoid plaster of Paris (PoP) as it is non-biodegradable.

2. Water: For mixing the clay.

3. Natural Dyes or Paints**: Use colors derived from vegetables or natural sources.

4. Tools: Basic sculpting tools like spatulas, knives, and brushes.

5. Base for Idol: A wooden or cardboard base.

6. Decorative Items**: Organic items like leaves, flowers, seeds, etc.

 Step-by-Step Process:

 1. Preparation:

   – Mixing the Clay : Combine the clay with water to make a dough-like consistency. Knead thoroughly to ensure it’s smooth and free of air bubbles.

 2. Creating the Base:

   – Form the Body: Shape a rough structure for the body of Lord Ganesha. This includes the torso, head, and base. Ensure the proportions are correct.

 3. Detailing the Idol:

   – Head and Face : Add a small ball of clay for the head. Shape the facial features carefully. Use tools to carve out eyes, trunk, and ears.

   – Arms and Hands**: Roll small pieces of clay into cylindrical shapes for the arms. Attach them to the body using water as glue. Shape the hands with detailed fingers.

   – Legs and Feet**: Similar to the arms, shape the legs and feet and attach them to the body.

4. Fine Detailing:

   – Ornaments and Crown**: Sculpt the crown, ornaments, and other intricate details. Use natural materials like seeds or grains to decorate.

   – Mushak (Mouse)**: Create a small mouse to place at Ganesha’s feet.

 5. Drying:

   – Allow the idol to dry naturally. This may take a few days depending on the size and thickness of the idol. Ensure it’s kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent cracking.

 6. Painting:

   – Once completely dry, paint the idol with natural, Eco-friendly colors. Avoid synthetic paints that are harmful to the environment.

 7. Final Touches:

   – Decorate the idol with organic items like fresh flowers, leaves, and natural fabrics for clothing.

8. Immersion:

   – During Visarjan (immersion), immerse the idol in a bucket or tub of water at home. After the idol dissolves, use the water to water plants, ensuring a complete return to nature.

Tips:

Work in Stages**: Allow each part to dry slightly before attaching new parts to maintain stability.

Use Reference Images**: Keep pictures of Lord Ganesha nearby to guide your sculpting.

Be Patient**: Take your time to ensure the idol is made with love and care.

By following these steps, you can create a beautiful, Eco-friendly Ganesh idol that celebrates the spirit of the festival while being kind to the environment.

Resin Art

Jun 10, 2022 |

 What is resin art?

If you ever wondered “what is resin art?” the answer is more simple than you think. Resin art is created when a runny chemical called epoxy resin is combined with various colour pigments and additives to produce a blend of unique patterns and textures. The resin mixture gradually hardens (when mixed with a hardener) to a solid plastic as a chemical reaction between its components takes place.

What is resin art used for?

Epoxy resin is commonly used in art in a variety of ways, from expressive, hypnotic and magnetic fluid artworks, to use with silicone moulds to cast objects such as coasters, dishes and jewellery,

How can I make my own resin art?

The process starts with a few essential supplies: disposable cups, popsicle sticks, resin and hardener, molds and a measuring cup. Optional items that can be added to your pieces include dried flowers, resin dyes and glitter. To ensure your safety and to avoid damage to the table you’re working on, laying down newspaper and wearing gloves is recommended.

After you’ve prepared your workspace, measure a one-to-one ratio of resin and hardener into the disposable cup. Begin stirring slowly with the popsicle stick until any air bubbles are gone and the ingredients are fully combined. Before pouring the concoction into your mold, add your preferred dye color and gently mix. Add the resin carefully to the mold and leave it in a secured, open location to cure overnight. Once the resin is completely set — voilà! — you’ve created your own piece of resin art.

What can be made with resin?

There are virtually endless possibilities for what you can create with resin if you have a mold for it. If you’re looking to make your own accessories, pendants, combs and earrings are simple and fun to make. If you’re thinking about revamping your apartment, consider making your own resin coasters, ashtrays, cutting boards or serving trays. For those who would rather preserve items instead of using molds, table-top and canvas art both look striking with the glossy finish of resin. Creating your own resin art gives you expensive-looking decor at a fraction of the cost.
