Cat-O-Ween and Jack Balloon
paper clay cigar box assemblage

One of my most heartfelt inspirations is American Folk Art. I wanted to create a papier maché look, but with something easier to form. So I tried the Paper Clay I've been hearing so much about. Well, this grinning black cat, complete with an orange feather boa and a faithful pumpkin balloon friend were so much fun to create. I can't wait to try more with this medium.
