Hey Sculpture students... I'm giving you a heads-up that I asked the Port Jeff Art Supply to order extra grey Van Aken plasticine (aka plastilina), aluminum armature wire (optional), and Sculptamold. These are required materials that are sometimes hard to find because local places can sell oyut quickly. Try Port Jeff first. Support your local art supply store!
