Experimentations for Buddha in the Shrine



 This was an experimentation to create the Buddhas body, i used a metal mesh material for the shape, and covered it with paper mache, create a paintable layer. The shiny texture is due to the a layer of latex that I added to see the effect it would give. I felt that this result was unsuccessful, and scrappy looking.

 These heads were made from a moulding clay, which simply needs to be left out in the air in order to harden. I really like the expressions I managed to capture on both the different trials.


This was my first attempt at creating a buddhas face, trying to capture the "fatness" and humbleness, and all the qualities of a buddha. I really liked this process, it was enjoyable.
