Materials: Colored kraft paper or photographs
Scissors
Foamcore
Glue - Sketch a design indicating where the raised paper pieces will be.
- Draw this image onto colored paper (figure A), cut out part of it and score the areas that will be folded.
- Shape some of the pieces and attach them to foamcore (figure B) to provide dimension, and glue other pieces directly to the backing (figure C).
For variation, do the following: - Begin with a snapshot (which can be enlarged at a copy center if it's too small), and make a sketch of the photo by tracing over the person's features.
- Make several photocopies of the sketch so that there are enough for the various layers.
- From the copies, create templates of each facial characteristic: nose, mouth, eyes, ears, hair, etc.
- Cut the characteristics from colored paper and paste identical pieces on top of one another to provide dimension.
Note: For display purposes, it's recommended that you use a box from a Lucite frame, since it can be recut to produce an inside shadow box to showcase the sculpture.
