Paper is the traditional 1st anniversary gift. Each one of these works is Hand Made and Hand Painted by the artist.

These are not flat paintings!!! They are painted 3D castings!! Paper casting is to me the perfect medium. It allows me use almost every skill set.

A typical piece begins as a drawing or two. Then I sculpt it in wax. This is a long refining process and often the image sculpted is far different that the drawing. Then I build a dam around the wax and pour a rubber mold directly off the surface.

A casting is made by pressing wet cotton pulp into the mold and extracting the water. Then I finish the surface. While every piece that emerges from the mold is about the same, no two are really painted the same. Maybe I would if I could, but the painting process is always in flux. I send about 75% of my time with the painted finishes. I use all major shippers. I choose based on best price to your location.

These are custom made pieces. Each piece is hand made, hand-painted and there is a only 1 to 2 molds for each piece.

These are not mass produced!! If you need the item by a certain date please let me know and I will do everything I can to accommodate. I guarantee complete satisfaction on every piece.
