These quirky papier mache' sculptures are made from multiple layers of acid-free tissue paper and acrylic medium (archival). I embellish them with acrylic paint, ink, collage and gold leaf. They are remarkably sturdy, despite their delicate appearance and can be cleaned with a damp rag. Most are live sized.
