Foundry Wax


I made this vase a couple of years ago.  It was made with a paper towel roll and some cardboard for the form then I glued on a lot of paper to create a paper mache vase then I added several coats of plaster of Paris sanding in between each coat.  The koi and flowers were done with air dry clay, hand sculpted and added piece by piece.  I then painted it with metallic and black acrylic paint and there it sat for 2 years.


I knew right away while watching Tim's demo that I had to pick up this vase and add some metal "bling" to it. 

Watch the video below to see the process!
