Paper Mache Clay

Following a quick review of the year and AGM admin, we had a fascinating talk from artist Janet Curley-Cannon about her work. We were taken on a journey through her drawing, photography, print-making, mixed media and sculptural work.

The afternoon was filled by a workshop on Janet's paper mache clay technique. Very useful and adaptable for a variety of purposes- either to create work that can be a vehicle for print transfers. Or as a method of creating forms for sculptures from cheap and light weight materials such as card or polystyrene packaging. Or simply as a way of creating a base or plinth for a 3d piece.
