Create paper mache sculptures.
The basis of the sculpture is made from chicken wire.
We bend in all directions in each other and make it with wires this to each other until
we have the sculpture white the shape that suits us.
We can give more strength and form by spraying polyurethane. into the chickenwire.
This is stronger and also set separate parts of the sculpture this to each other. You must
do this layer by layer. A whole shape at once is not possible because he collapses. If you
have sprayed a part wait to harden then you can spray a new layer on.
If the form is completely filled ,
ofcourse the polyurethane has merged into all directions.
We can cut it into the desiredshape with a stanley knife. In this case a cat.
If the form is completely cut we pack it with paper mache. We tear newspaper into small
pieces and using wallpaper paste we stick this to each other. A number of layers upon
each other for strength.
If this is done, we can start painting , it is the best to paint the sculpture white
later with color, this gives brighter colors. Finally varnish the sculpture.
