Tell us here... My main art, hobby, craft is ....

I experiment like a mad scientist so I can pass on formulas to people wanting to use papercrete mixes, and natural lime and clay plasters. I have created bird baths and bowls that hold water that are just paper, clay and lime. Plasters on walls, and sculpting art objects with these materials is fun. I have written several small booklets on aspects of using lime, clay and natural building

I joined Art hobby to:

share techniques and advice, all of the above

Which Country or Town are you located?

Behind the redwood curtain on the far north coast of California

Tell Us More (we'd like to get to know you better). About Me and My Art, Hobby, Craft:

I love recycling and repurposing salvage, using old world, natural lime plasters, and found materials to make useful stuff.

I am designing Paper rocks now, and learning how to make realistic light stones; I also embed glass, tiles, slate, shells rusty junk and driftwood into my items for a rustic look.
