Lion Baby Sculpture (2005)

This is the last of my strange paper-mâché sculptures — in case you were wondering just how many existed in my home.

This one was made with Fimo, cotton stuffing, cloth, glass doll eyes, lots of hot glue, and some plastic doll appendages. Pretty much the same old materials, but a little imagination goes a long way.

Chicken-Frog Sculpture (2005)

This sculpture was made with paper-mâché, chicken feathers, acrylic paint, hot glue, glass doll eyes, and painted plastic googly-eyes for the wart texture. I actually glued every feather onto this thing one at a time — I am still impressed with myself for that.

I would like to eventually post more pictures, but the sculpture is a bit dusty now, and my camera is malfunctioning. Above is a nice photo taken at the unveiling exhibition of the chicken-frog back in 2005.

This work was originally envisioned by a video artist friend of mine who gave me permission to use his idea. Sometimes collaboration is the secret ingredient for that delicious artistic treat.

Medusa + Liszt = Skateboard (2002-2006)

 

This skateboard is the bomb. It started out as a blank slate but eventually morphed into something fun and retro. The only thing I never did (that I intended to do) was change the grip tape to yellow. I never ride it anymore, so there is little motivation to put more effort into it now.

Polar Bear Head (2006)

This sculpture was made with paper-mâché, Fimo clay, furry cloth, acrylic paint, hot glue, glass doll eyes, and a plastic armature. It mounts on the wall like a hunting trophy and the teeth glow in the dark.
