I finished the Faux Water (Epoxy Resin)

Here are some updated pictures on my art doll assemblage

I created the water pond environment using two part epoxy resin. It turned out great. I poured two layers. Letting the first one dry. That allowed me to have two layers of embedded objects and leaves as well as faux diamonds. After all Merman is guarding a treasure of gold and lapis lazuli as well as diamonds. There is a Small box embedded sitting in the water. You can take off the lid and it is perfect to hide a diamond engagement Ring for example.

The next step is creating the waters edge, to make it all look very natural. After that I double check everything and is should be finished.

If you click on the images you can see large close ups.

Work In Progress Art Doll Assemblage

I've been working on this art doll assemblage for months.
The materials I am using are clay, yarn,paint, rocks,found items,cement epoxy.

He is the guardian of the treasure of the underworld. I love to let my imagination go wild from time to time and this is one of the results.
I've made a few art dolls usually about two a year.

Some of the rocks are painted to resemble gold rocks, some to resemble Lapis Lazuli.
I made everything by hand!

Let me know what you think!

My next step is to pour the water. That will be made from a clear epoxy!
I am hoping to get it ready in time for an art show.

When I pour the epoxy to create the water, I will use these leaves to embed and make float just like in a pond. I collected the leaves when I went to Lakeland Canyon in North Georgia.
