2D sculptures

Small Paper machettes as practices

Update; I am enjoying making these 2D sculptures, i as an aspiring illustrator love to draw, I do admit i like my wolves and german shepherds but looking back on my previous work i decided it would be best to make beagles, not because their cute little dogs, but because they are well used hunting dogs, even today.

To keep the figures 2D I made them completely one sided, you can only see their left or right side, no not both and no over lapping, except the tail and horns but i find that necassary.

My idea is, instead of a final performance or single sculpture was to have a performance photograph, to make the sculptures look as if they are moving. However I am nervous about being a sort of 'Director' for this photo, Im not entirely confident with telling people what to do or where to stand.

I have decided to keep the deer white because of an article I saw not to long ago about an almost legendary Albino Moose in Norway Named Albin who was shot dead not long ago

A definate health and safety for this new material which is very smooth and a sturdy material would be to wear gloves because we are using knives and the corners can also become very sharp on the sculptures.

also because of its smoothness it was a pain to paint, 3 coats in and i can still see sketches.

I have been thinking on ways to hold the sculptures in the photo, i have had two ideas, fabrics to make it hang or some sort of handle, for example toilet roll tubes,
