Normally, I would use the linseed oil at about 1% of the total mixture, but here I pushed it a bit, probably closer to 5%. Once it was totally dry, I did another top coat of straight linseed oil. The sculpture show only goes until Novemeber, so I am not too worried about it, but it will be interesting to see how it fares the Ithaca winter.erica annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00363749921277915733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027114734594238980.post-69149984377827485872009-06-30T18:01:20.658-07:002009-06-30T18:01:20.658-07:00This work is very inspiring, reminds me of Gaudi i...This work is very inspiring, reminds me of Gaudi in some way. I would be very interested to know which material was used to seal the mosaic, is it natural plaster? I Was wondering if it will resist natural elements, as it is staying outside. Congratulations, I can't stop going back to your websites and blogs, very inspiring!Alexandrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08977823100558729608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027114734594238980.post-73218319605315434442009-06-11T18:22:38.596-07:002009-06-11T18:22:38.596-07:00Wow I was just looking at it today then bumped int...Wow I was just looking at it today then bumped into it on the internet as I was looking at sculptures on the interwebs. It's really kick-ass -reminds me of a sculpture I saw in San Diego did you do one there too?
