TURTLE TRASH SCULPTURE UPDATE...BUILDING THE PLASTRON

9/4/2019

0 Comments

 
Happy 4th of September Turtle Trash Bloggers:  Today's efforts went into adding on to the plastron (Turtle belly) using plastic bottles, aluminum cans and other odds and ends--food wrappers and pens--which seem to work well.  All bottles and cans need to be flattened before they are attached which is very time consuming but fun once I start putting them together.   You will see rows which at a later date will be secured together by screws, wire, glue, and/or thread as the plastron of the turtle.  

As this sculpture build gains momentum, I see what I am working on but at the same time, see in my mind where I want that particular piece to fit in the sculpture farther down the road.   I am still in the beginning build stage.   As the sculpture moves along, you will see it come together and that is the fun part. 

 As we near the end, I will put out a call for name suggestions so put your creative turtle caps on and be ready.   Thanks everyone.   Until the next blog, here are some photos from today.
