Again: I know
this doesn’t look great. I’ve known from the get-go this ain’t gunna be a
beauty dress. This is as odd as making a dress inspired by a cardinal bird, but I
don’t question my intuition.
Saturday there
wasn’t a cloud in the sky. I did a two-hour walk that took me past two art
supply stores. It ain’t easy for me out there. I arrived back exhausted.
Chris.2 is a pussy.
Once recovered,
I worked on the dress. Challenge two with this dress was achieving the surface texture
I want but I’ve done it — at least I’m on my way. I have to wait to see how it
dries to know for sure but things are coming along.
There’s a good
strong paper on the foamcore to which the paper pulp can meld. I wet the paper
before I apply the pulp. The pulp is the third layer and I plan to put tissue
on top of what you see above.
