plaster works

Posted on Tuesday, July 19, 2011 by Regina Lord

I am finally getting around to sharing these little pieces (2.5 x 5 inches) I made a couple of weeks ago.

They are inspired by THIS book.

I made mine with water color paper, plaster gauze, spackling, washes of paint and covered them with encaustic medium.  Then I played with them some more. They were fun, messy and highly satisfying to make.

I put wax on both sides to make them thick, so they are quite sturdy.

Then I hung them with some oxidized wire in keeping with their rustic quality.

I hope to be playing more with plaster and wax. Fun, fun!
