ROCKS

Another break-away from the norm series I did were rocks painted in acrylic and fixed with magnetic strips on the back to use as refrigerator magnets.

ET CETERA

3D ART

I like to occasionally break up the routine of my canvas painting by going off on some unrelated idea to play with various media and different painting surfaces. I would classify these as art to be placed about on tables and such, rather than hung on walls.

MONSTUROS & MORE

A friend convinced me to accept a challenge to build a creature from paper mache, which led to a series of ideas derived from looking at a box or a container, and visualizing something I called a 'Monsturo'. All these were constructed from discarded boxes, tape rolls and other throw away items. My technique improved as I experimented with different recipes to make mache. Final process was to paint and seal with clear acrylic paint.

MORE MACHE

I continued working with

paper mache, creating more

common objects, like this

cigarette butt, approx. 14" tall.
