funky green bowl
Following something of a crafting break I finally finished this project, one of many ‘on-going’ projects that was gradually forgotten about over a period of time. This particular bowl has been about a year in the making, I know, I’m a veritable speed demon!
Most of what I’m making now are based on molds made of Plasticine, however this one predates my ‘discovery’ of the Plasticine method and has a wire frame onto which paper strips were stretched – after a manner of speaking. I’ve been experimenting with finishes and am currently using an emulsion/flour mix which has given it that cracked pottery effect (which is clearer if you click on the image to see it full sized).
Anyway I glazed it with PVA, which is why it has that almost varnish shine to it. I found that the varnish I had been using was discolouring my more recent pieces thanks to the lighter tone of paint being used.
