The chicken wire sculpture !!!!

Recently I've been doing a chicken wire sculpture of a person in motion - haaaaahhhhhh If you think this was easy, forget it ! I have been doing this since the beginning of time I reckon
I thought it'd be a piece of cake just sketch it out, cut out the chicken wire, cover it with paper mache and zip it over with some paint to my taste.. If ever anyone doubted that bread is full of dough = full of glue (glutin) never doubt again - I have used three litres of the stuff as well as pva and have glued almost every surface in my studio now.

Still, it IS taking shape - OK, well, I have had to remove the arms and reposition them in the right place, shift the legs around a bit and reshape the head, but hey, this is my first piece !!

My chicken man is now almost complete. Check back for progress
