Papier Mache- Cheap and limitless!

Many students love the power of  the pulply paste. I have done many sculptures with papier mache over the years and it always works best when students want to work big. I mean big as in carry it off off in a trailer big.
Just borrowing some rocks to weigh it down. It may be big, but it's really light



something this big needs to be painted with a sprayer

Finishing touches

    
Garbage bags filled with paper is a quick way to build form
Papier mach can really take the form of just about anything, it lends itself well to lessons on form or any other type of sculpture. smaller pieces that are created in my studio are supported by wire frame armatures. The armature is made from donated coat hangers.
