Sculpting with clay is one of my absolute favorite hobbies! It’s like I can turn a plain ball of clay into anything I imagine, from cute animals to pretty flowers. My hands get sticky or messy sometimes, but I don’t mind at all. I feel super happy when I finish a piece and get to show it to my friends. I mainly create these sculptures as gifts for them. It’s amazing how something so simple can make me feel like an artist! Just recently, I made a hello kitty sculpture for my best friend’s birthday gift. She loved how it turned out and was very fond. I hope I can improve my skills and get into something more immense like pottery.
