The day began early and the weather is rainy. But I’m still on my way to my new studio. Not far away from home but in the basement. Here is Monday clicks and tricks:

The mashed paper dough is ready. I placed my mixer stand in the toilet and with knowing what to do it took 25 mins ⏰ to mix a dough. I need 📌some baking soda and softener. I also mixed a citrus 🍊 solution to spray on cardboard models to balance the shrimping of my dough and model. It will also help to soften the overall piece and let me to sculpture evenly.

Paint 🎨 stand is opened today to set its needs. And first test trays are fully dried. 🌵 ⏰ it took a week on roof floor.

Here are some sculpture ideas 💡 and I will be trying one ☝️

My paper mashed dough was so thin that I changed my plan and go on with Rook the small cardboard already in a shape and size of a brick 🧱 I applied a pattern on the thin layer of mashed paper and leave a trace of stone tile.

On the other hand I started to apply the details on the other sculpture that is almost dried hard. Looks cute ☺️ I think 🤔 I am pretty close to define The King 👑
