I seem to be fixated on the idea of things with wheels right now. I don't know why, but I want to put wheels on everything I'm making! This little skelly I just finished up is no exception. Riding in his eco-friendly pumpkin mobile, he is ready to cruise the graveyards. Sculpted from papier-maché and paper clay.
I'm finishing up painting my last batch of creations. Once these are painted, stained, waxed and sealed, then it's back to getting my hands in the clay and creating a whole new batch. I've got plans for witches, zombies, and maybe a Santa or snowman thrown in just to mix things up ;)

I don't know why, but I started laughing with an image of your wonderful little Skelly guy, rolling down the aisles of the local Grocery store, scarying the little ol ladies... lol.
Very fun piece! :-)
I just discovered your blog and your artwork. I love your fun style. I have recently started working with paper clay myself and was wonder what you meant when you said "waxed and sealed"? How do you wax and seal them? I've just be letting them dry and painting them, but they have a dull look. I've made a few masks so far. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
