Progress


Some more detail work.

The Process (continued)

Okay so basically Ryan SAVED MY LIFE !!!!!!!!!!

The weird paper mache stuff was really not working out as I will be 30 by the time it dries. 

Ryan gave me some plaster sheets and wirefoam so I first molded the wirefoam around two glass spherical vases and sewed on some cotton balls.

Then I was inspired by Gaultier's design for Madonna for one of her tours and it became quite famous because of its accentuation of the female form. I liked this accentuation and thought it could be relatable to my project because it's all about exaggeration and interpretation.



So then I made two cones out of wirefoam and placed it on top of the cotton balls for support.

Then I placed the plaster sheets on top and let it dry before getting the spray paints, one in black and one in neon yellow.








Then I sprayed first the black.




I let that dry before adding the neon yellow.



I kind of did a gradient effect around the edges and I went in again with black.
