Paper Sculptures

Creating Green Art...


Tania developed her own technique to make sculptures, using recycled paper, scraps of jute cord and synthetic wool.
Sculptures are solid and resistant like hardwood. They are sealed, hand painted with acrylics and protected with layers of varnish to be resistant for generations. And for a realistic look, vivid eyes made of glass or resin, meticulously hand carved/painted.

Unique Pieces 

The sculptures are hand-free made. No molds are used, being each piece "unique".
They are signed, unique-of-kind, hand made/painted pieces.
The artist can be commissioned to create new and unique artworks.
