A few years back I used the technique of papier maching over clay sculptures to create my trio of witch characters.
While reviewing these photos it struck me that I really would like to play with this technique again, it was fun and I enjoy sculpting with clay although it’s something I don’t do very often.
The technique is dependable as long as you use a good release agent so the papier mache does not stick to the clay; otherwise it becomes a tedious mess trying to scrape the clay from the dried paper.
I’m thinking some new creatures, not witches but something different for the 2010 display.
Fabulous sculpts!!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm intrigued; do you paper mache over clay in order to make a copy?
ReplyDeleteLooking great, by the way.
