PROGRESS ON THE BOOK:

The book has been submitted to various publishers and is not available at this time.

During the course of working and teaching, I realized that there are so many people interested in the techniques I use, it was time to write a book.
The typical setup of any papier mache instruction book usually involves the step by step construction of a proposed subject generally resulting in a generically finished product. However, in this book, you choose the subject and each section will take you through universal steps necessary for the construction of it, showing you what materials to use and how to integrate them within an internal structure.
Afterwards, layering techniques, sanding and painting tips are explained for finishing. The thorough explanation of material uses through diagrams in each section will demonstrate the vast possibilities of subject choices. It is truly a unique approach in that it encourages you to trust your own creative process by way of demonstrating what the new and alternative materials can do for you!
Although not intended for children due to the advanced techniques, book set up, and the usage of sharp implements, these methods can be followed with close supervision of the child.
This book will hopefully be published soon in order to show you the techniques that have brought me the attention I've received for my work.
