Papier Mache

Hey,
So we are still working on our papier mache sculptures, and I have papier mached it all with newspaper, then 1 layer with paper towels and finally a layer of gesso (white paint glue stuff).

The next step is drawing (in our visual art diaries) what we want it to wear, because we will be making them and putting it on our dolls ( can't wait !). I am planning on mine wearing a layered dress, and each layer might have a different pattern on it.

Oh yeh, our statue and what it is wearing has to represent 'My Story', so basically what my parents did or grandparents did when they were young or where they lived and so on. For example, my mother owned a pet deer when she was a child, so I am going to put the picture of the deer on my dress.

I want it to look sort of vintage, but still pretty and fashionable sort of thing.

Here are some dresses that I want to mix together, you could say, to make it...
