Cut Out + Keep

Dress

Complicated dress. -.-

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/dress-2 • Posted by Melissa H.

This one took longer to make because blue clay and a pasta roller are not friends. I needed the pasta roller to get the clay thin enough to use as fabric, but blue clay gets too soft really easily. So the clay kept getting stuck and I had to keep taking the machine apart to clean it. It also took a little longer because we were at a cabin in Lake Tahoe. Probably would have been a better project for home. haha. The entire thing is based off of a mask my aunt bought me in New Orleans. The doll does have a face, my only sculpture with a face, but i do not like it so ;P
