Updates…..
First, our WOW #3 is coming along nicely, I attached the ears and strengthened the ears near the head. I find that here is the only possible problem area.
After Wow finishes drying I will place strips around the ears to cover the clay and add more strength. I have lost hours of work for not doing more to strengthen my pieces. So, now I put extra effort into every pieces.

Make Paper Mache Clay
Make Paper Mache Clay
Paper mache clay requires few ingredients and batches can be quickly and cheaply made as you need. Clay artists have taken this school time art and have expanded on this notion to achieve great works of art or fun bits of whimsy.
As Paper Mache Artist I want to share the recipe that I currently incorporate into my three dimensional sculptures. You will also find links to other useful recipes on my website through the link provided.
Just Another Wow Sculpture
This is little Wow #3 and coming along quite nicely. I am trying to take more photos to share with you the process I have chosen.
I made each of the body parts separately and covered them with a layer of news strips. The head and body are created with balloons. Balloons make the perfect shape for the round body Wow has.

ART Takes Flight
Paper mache is one of the most versatile arts around; there is no right or wrong way to do it. You can create almost anything, and usually you have all you need laying around your home.
