🦉 Free Webinar: How to Make a Master Model for Plaster Molds
Master Model Making: Sculpting an Owl
📆 Thursday, September 3rd
⏰ 11 AM EDT
Ever wish you could sculpt something once, and make it a hundred times over?
That's exactly what a master model is for.
It's the one original piece you shape by hand. From it, you create a plaster mold, and from that mold, you can reproduce your design again and again, same shape, same detail, your own style, every single time.
Why this is different from just copying a shape?
When you make your own master model, you're not reproducing someone else's design, you're creating one from scratch. That means the shape, the texture, the little details, all of it is yours.
You decide the form. You decide the pattern. You decide what makes it feel like your work.
And once it's cast in plaster, that original design becomes something you can reproduce again and again, but it started as something only you could make.
No more starting from scratch with every new piece.

IN THIS WORKSHOP I'll SHOW YOU:
What a master model actually is, and why every mold starts with one
• How to sculpt a master model step by step, using a little clay owl as my example
• What makes a good master model (and common mistakes to avoid)
• How this one skill can speed up your entire ceramic process
🛠️ What you'll need to follow along:
• Clay, oil-based clay, or plasticine
• Basic sculpting tools
That's it, no pottery wheel, no big studio setup.
🛠️ Who this is for
Whether you're just starting out or you've been working with clay for a while, this is for anyone who wants to stop remaking the same piece from zero every time, and start building a process that actually scales.

Hi, I'm Victoria
(@murava_ceramics)
I've spent years developing a ceramics practice rooted in the joy of making things that are both beautiful and useful. My work lives at the intersection of function and playfulness, and the spoon, humble as it seems, has become my favourite canvas for that exploration.
My teaching style is direct, hands-on, and designed to give you real skills you'll use for life, not just steps to follow once.
