The firefighter in action For this work, I drew my inspiration from a cartoon paintings. Here stands an extraordinary sculpture crafted entirely from recycled paper pulp, depicting a firefighter frozen in indecision. The intricate details of the sculpture, such as the folds in his uniform and the creases on his forehead, give it a lifelike quality that is truly remarkable. The unique mix of modern and traditional techniques used in its creation results in a high level of finish and finesse, making it a truly one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Each of these sculptures has a unique expression and an extraordinary finish that emphasizes the quality of the paper mache material. They are one-of-a-kind items that will make a great addition to any collection. This home décor papier Mache figure is an art sculpture, please avoids exposure to water. This is a perfect gift for yourself, your family or someone special who likes sculptures. Measurements are approximately 40T x 26W x 21 cm (or 15.7”T x 10.2”W x8.3”D) To see more of my works, or to order one of them, please visit my site: https://nyassour.wixsite.com/naomiart or my store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/NaomiArtWorks

As 2014 starts to shut up shop, its time for some contemplation, possibly on a zoetrope pot, or maybe some reflection with some clay doodling.
