TITLE:	METALLICA POT
PRICE:	£135 Please use currency converter below
DIMENSIONS:	52" diameter at widest point (8" diameter at neck) x 13½" H   (132cm [20.3cm diameter at neck] x 34.3cm H)
COLOURS:	Paynes Grey, washed with copper, bronze and gold leaf.
DETAILS:	I used a huge party balloon as a mould for this pot and gradually built up numerous layers using strips of newspaper.  The outside of the pot is then covered in paper pulp and then left to dry, usually for a week or more if the ambient temperature is low or the pulp is very thick.  The ridges on the pot are then built up using twists of newspaper (standing 1½" [3.8cm] proud of the surface) and again left to dry.  The pot is then covered in tissue paper which is carefully manipulated to form deep texture. Once dry, the pot is then sealed before being layered with professional quality acrylic paints, two coats of varnish are then applied  to preserve this beautiful work of art. A Certificate of Authenticity, stating details of the sculpture, signed and dated by the artist, will be included. Care Instructions will also be included.
Additional Information:	The pot is very unsual in being quite 'squishy' to the touch, which makes it very tactile indeed.
