JLI invites artists to develop their painting techniques as inspired by the work of Man of Action's BEN 10. The animated series follows ten year old Ben Tennyson who finds a device out in the woods called the Omnitrix, which allows him to turn into ten different aliens species. Throughout his summer vacation, travelling the country in the Rustbucket with his Grandpa Max and his cousin Gwen, Ben fights crime and evil aliens with his new powers, gaining the ability to turn into more aliens along the way.

JLI brings tradtional and digital techniques together using the making of maquettes as inspired by the work of the Walt Disney Studios and their library of VILLAINS. Learn the process and materials used to form the head of these popular characters and create new 3D ones of your own. Artists will build wireframes, light weight forms in foil, and visualize with polymer clay.
