			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.townsendatelier.com">Townsend Atelier</a> supplies products to all sorts of artists and craftspeople across the globe. Our products are used by sculptors, restoration professionals, jewelers, potters, crafts people, doll makers, soap makers, taxidermists, and even chocolate makers.</p>
<p>Our new <em>Web Gallery</em> will be a place where we will regularly showcase some of the incredible work that our customers are creating with our products. We are always excited to see what everyone is making and hope that you will be too. Please check our site periodically for new postings.</p>
<p>You may get some inspiration. What will you make?</p>
<p><em>P.S. We would love for you to tell us what <strong>you</strong> are making! Send us an <a href="mailto:info@townsendatelier.com">email</a> and let us know!</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.rootie.com">Leslie Molen</a> is a nationally recognized doll artist based in Denver, CO. She has exhibited her one-of-a-kind work in galleries and museums around the world.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>Little Blossoms in Red, and Little Blossoms in Lavender, by Leslie Molen. <em>Mold of original clay head with Knead-a-Mold, silicone putty. <em>The &#8220;Heads in a row&#8221; show from original, molded, and the finished product.</em></em></em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">To make the finely detailed heads of her intricate elves, she pours the heads in Clay-Shay (available at <a href="http://www.avesstudio.com">AVES</a>) which she covers with cloth. Leslie then makes a mold of the cloth covered clay head with <a href="http://www.townsendatelier.com/store/knead_a_mold/php">Knead-a-Mold</a>.</span>&#8220;I appreciate that the Knead-a- Mold picks up such fine detail that I can still cover the head in fabric and that detail still shows through!&#8221; she says.</p>
