this is what I did at school today... in 2 weeks this sculptural/folklore project will be complete (I hope)
it is a lot more work than I anticipated, but has gone very smoothly and I (and the kids) have learned a lot.
(the next step will be to secure it outside on the slab that I still need to pour, then plaster it with a concrete mixture and carve out detail as we go... the concrete will eventually be 2-3 inches thick, and will be sanded to a nice stony finish on completion)
this is measuring roughly 10 ft long, 6 deep and 5 foot tall at ears... the tail is designed as a seat, but students can sit/climb on entire piece when complete
wish me luck!
