Fairy Tale Fashion

Experimentation with latex.
I wanted to create tentacles to go around the neck so it was like a necklace.  I was using The Little Mermaid as my inspiration, but using the character Ursula   The work has gone really wrong and just keeps sticking together, plus it smells really bad and to have that around your neck would knock you out.

This piece of work was a second attempt at making a tentacle necklace but using thicker latex.  This has definitely gone a lot better that the first because its a lot more stable and doesn't stick together too much.  It does take longer to dry but I think the over all outcome will be a lot better.

Taking the idea Bryony, in my class, gave me.  I didn't like the latex pooling at the bottom of the cling film so she said to fold paper and pour it down so it wouldn't pool.  This is still wet so I wont know the full effect until it is dry but I think this one will work a lot better than the others.

This clay stone shaped thing is inspired by snow white.  This is meant to be an apple but it doesn't really look like one. Its only an experiment so the shape isn't important.  I'm going to cover this 'apple' in latex and when its dry i was going to take it off and hopefully make some sort of jewelry out of it.
