Week 2, I took one of the wire sculptures I had made in Week 1 and wrapped it in gauze impregnated with plaster - I am sure there is a posh word for that but I have forgotten it. Anyway, I bound the armature wire curves in this material, which is very similar to the plaster you would put on a broken limb. It dries and hardens quite quickly. I took it home and painted it in sea blues and greens and golds. I might make a bigger version of this piece; I like it.
