About Me

Hi, my name is Tamra Kohl. I am a commercial sculptor by trade. I have worked in the display industry in Los Angeles for the last 25 years. First as a professional mannequin "make-up" artist, (It's really oil paint), then as a sculptor. As a commercial sculptor, I have been commissioned to sculpt everything from giant cartoon characters to mannequins to tiny display props.

I love sculpting the big stuff, but a move to the Austin, Texas area a few years ago, where the demand for commercial sculptors is not what it is in L.A., has encouraged me to try something different. I have been working with polymer clay for around 11 years and it is a versatile, and, I think, underestimated medium.

My Polymer Clay "skeleton" sculptures and jewelry

Polymer clay is great to work with. It is easily sculpted, and fantastic designs can be made within the clay with the "millefiori" technique. It is a low fire clay, just baked in a toaster oven. But the end result is a hard, resilient, stable product, that can be sanded, drilled, and painted.

I am interested in all different styles of art, but, in particular, Mexican folk art. My favorite projects are my skeleton, Day of the Dead inspired sculptures. I love the old characters, La Catrina, El Catrin, La Sirena, etc., and enjoy making my own versions of these skeletons, as well as my own skeleton characters.

I am always happy to hear from you, and I enjoy doing commission work, so if you have a character in mind, drop me a note!

This piece is called "The Reunion", during daylight hours, and at night with a black light!

Old Stuff

I also love old and unusual things, and have accumulated way too many of them over the years, so, you will see a lot of those items up for auction, as well. ( I sell most of my interesting used or vintage items under my other eBay user ID tamra512.)


I hope that you will enjoy viewing my sculpture, jewelry and other items on eBay, and that you will add me to your favorite sellers list so that you can keep up with my current auctions. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or comments. Again, thanks for visiting.
