Pat B:
Thanks BJ. More to come...
Jerry, I'll investigate the Lakota so I can get the horseman's cloths and decorations right when that time comes. I like the word "Tetanka" and will use that as the title for this piece.
I'll also try to document some of the processes for you I go through making these pieces.
My wife does give me technical advice as to proportion, techniques and coloration. She's an artist and has been doing paper mache figures for many years. I appreciate all the input she gives and the results are the affects I'm looking for in these pieces.
Pat B:
OK, Jerry. Here is what the bison looked like a few days ago. Styrofoam eggs and balls with floral sticks attaching them. After shaping and covering with strips of news paper, tissue paper and diluted white glue the resulting figures emerged. The toilet paper roll stuffed with plastic grocery bags is what the horses body started out as. With tissue paper and white glue, along with floral wire for the legs is where it is now.
Pappy:
That is looking good Pat. :)
