hand made paper mache pulp….

this sculpture is made of a mixture of concrete,sand peatmoss and water…the mixture is pressed into a mold…or can be hand sculpted….this sculptures head was made using a plaster paris mold….cake pans ..jellow molds or bowls can be used…anything it will pop back out of. the purpose of the peat moss is that this sculpture will grow moss.and becomes quite unique and beautiful….most of my friends make planters and bird baths out of this mixture…..For myself they have sold well at shows.

While riding through Cambridge i found a beautiful life sized,   display of Paper mache sculptures of people from the Dickens story…..they are all over down town, .and thought i’d spread the word…if you live  in Ohio, and you love paper mache…try to go down and see. here’s a link to their website with all the details..

although i had no part in making these beautiful sculptures, i did take the pictures posted here on this post….. just a few of the ones i took that day… This is the ONLY work on this blog that i did not make myself..i’m just posting this so you can read about how they created them etc…http://dickensvictorianvillage.com/overview.html
