I take the world’s most suspicious little creatures and make them cute, jointed, and strangely lovable. You request the beast — I show you how to sculpt it, build simple joints, and turn it into a tiny movable character. Axolotls, lizards, salamanders, weird fears from the swamp of your imagination — bring them in. We’ll laugh at them, sculpt them, and leave no monster unadorable.

Create a 40 cm (15.7 in) ball-jointed art doll from the inside out: templates, body, head, hands, feet, hollow balls, working joints and elastic assembly. Suitable for beginners, OOAK artists, and prototypes for resin or porcelain casting. Use polymer or air-dry clay, foil, paper and pencil. Clear step-by-step lessons, with help if mistakes appear. Before Skool, several hundred students took this course, with thanks from every continent except Antarctica. Start today!

Create an anatomically correct skull as the foundation for a proportional art doll face. In this course, you’ll build the skull from foil and polymer clay, shape the eye sockets, nose, jaw, teeth and cheekbones, then prepare it for the next stage: adding facial muscles and sculpting the face. This is the structure that helps prevent common mistakes in doll faces. Clear step-by-step lessons guide you from the first form to a realistic skull base. Start today!

Turn an anatomical skull into a living art doll face. In this 2nd part, you’ll add facial muscles, lip structure, eye muscles, eyelids, nose, ears and the final soft tissue layer. Step by step, the skull becomes a proportional, expressive face instead of a guessed surface. This course helps you understand why doll faces go wrong — and how to make them finally come alive. Start before your skull gets bored!

Learn to carve a movable wooden art doll using Anna Haritonova’s unique template-based method. This course is built around live sessions, where we study the anatomy of the articulated human figure, work through the templates, discuss joints, proportions, tools, and carving steps, and solve problems as they appear. Downloadable templates are included to guide your work from the first wooden block to a jointed figure.

Get seen with your work on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok — without a team, agency, or marketing fog. This course is for artists and makers who would rather create than “do content,” but still want real reach. We’ll cover phone filming, hooks, simple editing, satisfying reels, loops, before/after videos, repeatable series, and the rules algorithms actually reward. Plain words, no jargon, personal feedback, and a clear system you can use with your own art.
