Description
I wanted to resemble a button that would look good and pop at a smaller scale also! It is 10 ft diameter and I build it over the earth frame that I made previously.
As always , I don t really know how I m going to complete a project when I start it, but I do have the basic idea and then I build on as I go. While the background was clear in my mind, the statue came later and ended up having relief elements. The dress is build out of tissue paper and a few elements on the face have cotton balls as base considering that I tried as much as I could not to add weight to a particular portion risking to have the paper split. The paint adds some strength to the paper but using one sheet and only staples around the frame makes it vulnerable.
I love challenges !!!
Created for Veterans Day Celebration at my son's school.
