Cette technique [de modelage à la masse] doit son nom au fait que l'on dégage la forme de la masse même de la terre. Préparez une balle de terre ronde et bien battue. Placez les deux pouces verticalement au-dessus du centre de la balle et enfoncez-les dans la terre. Doucement, élargissez l'orifice et agrandissez-le en donnant aux parois une épaisseur égale. Vous obtenez ainsi une forme ronde et creuse qui constitue le point de départ d'un objet fait à la masse. 1, record 2, French, - modelage%20%C3%A0%20la%20masse
