Whimsical Paper Mache Carnival Monkey







This was fun to make but took a while. It is a long process. He has been made of fabric strips in paste and also in paper. Thus, paper mache.






He stands 24 inches tall. Would this not be fun in the right room. Very nice and stands by himself. Handmade. I did make a big dinasour but gave it to my nephew to paint up. More to come. This is a longer process than clay sculpting. Items can be varnished for outdoors. But, not year round, the weather would be hard on any outdoor papermache piece.
