This is simply a piece of clay that I pushed around when it was wet and pliable. I then completely forgot about it. Six weeks later and this thing is now bone dry, unusable, and headed for the bucket. Before being recycled, though, I took a picture for posterity. I went to bed and colored it on my phone. . #dancingfleurdelis #greenware #ceramic #markup #clay

I love wear patterns of any kind. Foot paths, old curbs, marks left behind by swinging keys, the edge of an old counter top at a hardware store. If it’s old and well-worn, I dig it. I always thought an exhibition of such things, removed from their original context, would make for an interesting show. This behemoth of a door from a cardboard baler would definitely hang next to the crudités and champagne. . . #balersofinstagram #visualtexture #wellworn #pattern

The “paper mache” has finally dried and set up, allowing me to remove the excess newspaper on the inside. I’m left with a super lightweight shell, in the shape I want. It ain’t rocket science. It’s just flour, water, and newspaper, but it’s working. Can’t wait to move onto the next step – batting and fabric.

Newspaper and blue tape create the foundation for the “paper mache” that’ll be pouring out of this poor bastard’s face. I’ll then cover it with batting and fabric. Gonna be epic. . . #gonnabeepic #papermache #poorbastard #mixedmedia #sculpture #cantwait #ceramic #batting #fabric #bust #clay #art

Swing lamps on a stick, on wheels = light where you want it. . . #dangerwillrobinson #swinglamps #studiohack #studiolife #lighting #diy

First attempt complete. Not bad, but I’m not entirely satisfied with it either. . The wife liked it so much, though, she claimed ownership and wouldn’t let me take it apart or re-do it. Probably best. . Time to move on and make another... and another... and another. More to come. . . #myspouseissmarterthanme #artistsoninstagram #wallhanging #sculpture #ceramics #viscocity #decor #art
