An happy Thursday to you all!
As I promise, I'm here to show you the final result of another little sculpture in cement I made in the past days!

You can see the first prototype here.
Since some months I wanted to try to use cement to create something similar to my freaky wooden houses (I call them "Monolocali Biculi") and thanks to my hubby paolobeneforti@paolobeneforti who teached me how to do it, I created some prototypes.

You can see the new one in the following pics:

It was very interesting for me to work with the cement making simple forms like this one. I can try to mix the cement, water and more or less sand tomake the form more or less smooth (I like to make it less smooth like the walls of an old abandoned house _).

The process was not so difficult like the the first time. I made a simple shape with wooden scrap (a rectangular parallelepiped form) and I placed some metal wire on the open side to add "something" on the head of it.

When the piece was dried enough, I started to use my oil colors on it:

After I painted it (just one side of it) ,I worked on the head creating a tiny mushrooms using paper from tea bags, glue, metal wire and moss:

I hope you like it!
See ya soon and stay safe,
