Decomposition || Colony Trial
These little guys have kept me busy lately, reinforcing the cap shape with wire and wrapping the stems. I'm finding that I wish I had made more of them, but I still think the project outcome will be fun and as expected. If it works out, there is always opportunity to make more of them for a larger scale installation eventually.
This first phase is titled "Colony" and after we return home I plan to get to work on some Ganoderma - a lot more color, a lot more technical and shape dependent. I have some exciting ideas for how to execute that phase though, so I can't wait to get started on it.
In any case, while we were in Arkansas camping last month, I took a few pieces along with us on a hike just to test them out. Here is a sneak peek of a "Colony". After we return from Oregon, I'll post the real deal.
