Creativity For Isolation- Tiny 1/4 cup owl We've been asked recently by our customers... "I'm a little intimidated to start sculpting with your product as it works so differently form what I'm used to using." "What can I do with my leftover product?" "I've mixed a little too much and don't just want to throw it away." "I am isolated and still want to be creative but I don't have much product to work with." So we listened and thought we would start this tiny projects to get you started using our weatherrpoof sculpting medium Pal Tiya Premium. You only need a tiny amount and can actually make 20 sculptures of this size from a small trial bag of product (3lbs)! We've got a few more planned so stay tuned! We hope you're all safe and just like you we are all self-isolating right now and keeping our sculpting hands busy. We hope that even if you don't have much product you can still make small little things like this with what you do have :) Happy Tiny Sculpting, The Pal Tiya Crew

WE HAD SO MANY GREAT ENTRIES TO THIS YEAR'S USA HALLOWEEN COMPETITION!!!
It was a tough decision but The Pal Tiya Crew judged the entries based on concept originality, technical skills, and execution.
We are thrilled to announce the WINNER of 80lbs of Pal Tiya Premium outdoor sculpting medium is going to Barrett Dodds of Oakshire Oddities in North Carolina!!!
BIG CONGRATS Barrett 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Pumpkin Man was made using 30lbs of Pal Tiya Premium and we think you'll agree that the technical difficulty of creating this sort of sculpture is extraordinary. The concept, scale, and execution is remarkable. Just the right mix of fun and horror for Halloween!
Barrett says "I wanted to find a cast iron or aluminum pole but I didn't have the patience for it so he is attached to a wood newel post from Lowe's. The type of post on a stair case."
Barrett is already getting a whole load of interest in this piece and many people asking for one!
We would like to mention this was Barrett's first ever solo project using our medium.
Show Barrett some love for his piece by commenting on this post 🤗

We would also like to congratulate Janet Brown from Pennsylvania for her amazing Spider!
This is a smart, well crafted piece. It's an inherently difficult subject with all the legs, especially constructed at such a size. The surface textures and painting finish are lively and clean.
Well done Janet 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 we'll be sending you a 3lb bag of Pal Tiya Premium in the mail soon.

We would also like to congratulate Sarah Bakker from Indiana. She placed 2 entries into the competition and we loved them both but her Ugly Rocks with eyes and teeth are simple, but astonishingly effective. These rocks are a strong concept, sharply made and beautifully painted to a great final effect. Nicely creepy!
Extra props to Sarah for always taking such wonderful photographs of her sculptures!!
Well done Sarah 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 we'll also be sending you a 3lb bag of Pal Tiya Premium in the mail soon.

Inspired by the stunning New Zealand Landscape after a recent relaxing break on the South Island, our Creative Director Kim Beaton came back curious as to how she could replicate what she saw using a very small amount of Pal Tiya Premium (PTP) Outdoor Sculpting medium.
This is useful if you have some leftover from a larger project and you aren't sure what to do with it!
1. Begin with a nice rock for your Tiny Landscape and small quantity of PTP tinted 5% with Green oxide. We can bump up the oxide content to 5% on this particular project as nobody will be standing on our tiny rock landscape. Wet the rock slightly so the PTP will adhere.
Note: If you are putting oxides into your Pal Tiya Premium powder before mixing then only mix in 2%, any more will affect the strength of our sculpting medium.

2. Apply Pal Tiya Premium 3 mm (1/8 inch) thick where grass might grow on the top of the rock. Mix a small quantity of yellow oxide to create a lighter green.
3. Daub the lighter green onto the high areas
4. Using a small dental tool, blend the two colors together.
5. Using a brush, stipple a fine grass like texture.
6. Wet several small sharp rocks and place them upright like Stonehenge.
7. Burn the fibers.
8. Use the remaining green Pal Tiya Premium as a base and hot glue a foil support to the base and rock while it cures so it won’t tip over.
9. Press in tiny stairs and paths to show habitation
10. Wrap in plastic overnight to cure. The following day add wet towels, recover in plastic and cure for a minimum of 5 days. 28 days is the strongest possible cure for the greatest strength.
Happy Sculpting,

Author: David Powell - Evermore Park
When the directors of the Evermore Creative Studio discovered Pal Tiya Premium, we all knew that it was going to be a game changer for us.
Evermore Park is an immersive theatrical park in Pleasant Grove, Utah. Here guests can come and interact with costumed actors and puppeted characters to go on quests through an old world style village. As you make your way around the park, the different sections represent different time periods in a fictional town. Victorian, Gothic, Celtic, and ancient mythological themes are portrayed through real architectural elements sourced from Europe and augmented with set design.
One of these specially designed buildings is known as Drakenhaven. For Mythos, our summer season, we wanted to focus on the magic and wonder of dragons, and their return to the town of Evermore. Many of the “choose your own adventure story elements” in the experience centered around that theme.
To that end, we wanted to have a dig site where kids could come and uncover a “real” dragon Skeleton. This was at the foot of Drakenhaven, suggesting that dragons had lived there long ago. This revered location was built upon the ancient resting place of these mythical beasts.
We knew that we needed a material that would last through time, could be sculpted
artistically, be less toxic than other materials, and not cost too much. This led us directly to Pal Tiya Premium. Our team took the Sacramento Masterclass in the material lead by Kim Beaton, Co-Founder & Creative Director at Pal Tiya.
We knew for sure that this would be the very best way to accomplish what we were seeking.
We began the sculpture with an armature that was made out of various materials. For the dragon’s head, we used polystyrene that had been milled to the right shape by our Kuka robotic milling arm.
The other bones were then cut out of cardboard and assembled into the skeletal shape to check the size. These bones were covered with aluminum foil using Kim’s method we learned in the class. We sculpted additional rock shapes out of smaller blocks of Styrofoam and covered some of them in aluminum foil as well.

We sculpted additional rock shapes out of smaller blocks of Styrofoam and covered some of them in aluminum foil as well.
Since we knew we would be embedding the skeleton using concrete as a mortar, it wasn’t critical for us to cover every single part of the bones in aluminum foil. Once the armature had been sculpted in aluminum foil, our team started mixing and applying the Pal Tiya Premium to the armature. We began with the whole crew and quickly ended up with just one person applying the product and spraying it down with water. Texture was added as it dried and became leather hard. Since PTP strengthens with water we continued to keep it wet and covered as much as possible to give it the most durability.
For the installation, we determined where it would be placed, strategically stacked
shale rocks around the sculpture, and used regular concrete to solidify it in place. Then we applied a thin set concrete over the top of that so that we could sculpt rock details to match the Shale. The whole thing looked very natural like an actual dig site. Because of the inherent strength of Pal Tiya Premium, we were able to use just 1 ½ Standard bags of the product, keeping the cost to a minimum. The Dragon sculpture has been stood on by most of us without any damage whatsoever, despite being built into narrow bone structures with many hollowed out undercuts.
Needless to say we continue to be astonished by this stuff!
The project was so much fun and looks so great in place, that we have decided to augment Drakenhaven with many more dragon remains sculptures, giving the whole building a very strong feeling of being built on the bones of ancient dragons. We can’t wait for our guests to come and explore the hidden secrets of this dragon ruin that has risen anew.
We were so grateful to Kim and Community Manager Yvonne for their instruction and continued support through this whole process as well. They were always eager to answer questions and help us to make the most out of this great product. They were also able to get us the product very quickly and smoothly. Pal Tiya International is a great company that is changing the game in outdoor permanent sculptures, and we look forward to many more projects for our immersive fantasy park.
