Because these workshops are split over multiple sessions for sculpting and painting, you get plenty of time to let the clay dry and focus on the fine details without feeling rushed. It is a tactile, meditative experience that helps you connect with the festival in a meaningful way. ### Why Choose Shadu Clay? We strictly use Shadu Mati (natural river clay) because it is fully biodegradable. Unlike Plaster of Paris, which lingers, these idols dissolve naturally in water, making your celebration kinder to the environment. ### The Process Our workshops are designed for all ages. We start by teaching basic coil and ball modeling techniques to build the structure. You do not need to be an artist to join; we focus on anatomy and proportion, helping you bring your Bappa to life. * **Session 1 (Sculpting):** We spend our time modeling the form, focusing on the trunk, ears, and features. * **Session 2 (Finishing):** Once the clay is firm, we add the details and paint the idol using our non-toxic, child-safe BAAKIN paints. ### What You Get We provide the wooden chowki (plank) for the idol's base, along with all the tools and colors you need. You will leave with a Ganesha you sculpted from scratch, ready to be welcomed into your home for the festival. If you are looking for a break from the noise of the city, this is a quiet, creative space to pause and create something beautiful with your own hands. ### Location We host these sessions at our studio in Natalwalla Bungalow, Bandra West. It is a garden setting where you can truly relax and let your imagination take flight. ## About Alafiyas Kinderart I am Alafiya, and I believe art is about finding calm. In these workshops, I love watching everyone—kids and adults alike—slow down and shape their own Ganesha with patience and pure joy.
