In my ideal world there wouldn't be a single known actor in this show. I want all unknowns who are plucked out of their dead end jobs and given a chance to shine. All unknowns. I don't want to recognize a single face.
Everything was done with paper mache and mounted on the wall using double sided tape. The vines are twisted aluminum foil that I left naked because I like the glint if metal against the wall. Everything was painted with acrylic paint and sealed with spray sealant in a high gloss. They're mounted high because my partner is very tall and I didn't want any head on collisions.
I'm still working on the layout (and would love feedback) but this is my koi pond that'll be going on the wall above my sofa.
Lily pads are still in progress but both fish are now completed.
(posted earlier, accidently deleted) My new koi fish. The first of two is done. I'm going to be adding lily pads and flowers and possibly a turtle for the art above my sofa. I'm very happy with how the first came out. First papier mache in years but I sculpt in ceramics often. I used a simple uncooked flour and water mix with a bit of white glue for added strength.
