Paper Casting
Paper casting is to me the perfect medium. It allows me use almost every skill set. A typical piece begins as a drawing or two. Then I sculpt it in wax. This is a long refining process and often the image sculpted is far different that the drawing. Then I build a dam around the wax and pour a rubber mold directly off the surface. A casting is made by pressing wet cotton pulp into the mold and extracting the water. Then I finish the surface.
While every piece that emerges from the mold is about the same, no two are really painted the same. Maybe I would if I could, but the painting process is always in flux. I am always experimenting with ways of mixing colors or washes and hard edge or new pigments. I send about 75% of my time with the painted finishes.

This was even more beautiful than I thought it would or could be. I arrived very quickly, packed well and ready to hang. I would highly recommend any of the cast paper items that Kevin makes. This one was so beautiful I ordered a different piece from him! Thank you, Kevin, for sharing your talent and art!

The framed irish rose was more beautiful in person then what I seen on the site. Received the item faster then I expected and was extremely well packed. I will be purchasing more items in the future.
