its about time project

the beginning

second attempt

Eight Changes:

adding

I added pins that align with spine of the animal

Then I added hemp string and twisted them around

the pins

Next, I painted the soap with acrylic green paint.

With the wet paint and a little water, I added soap shaving onto

the soap

Then once the soap shavings were on the soap I wrapped

masking tape all around it.

subtracting

First I chopped off all of the legs.

Then I chopped off the snout of the animal.

Next I chopped off the neck and some of the soap shavings

Then I removed more of the soap shavings

Then, with all the soap cravings I created a coat 

since people like to wear sheep's fur in coats and sweaters.

I wanted to change the soap form as much as possible and from the beginning I knew that I wanted to use the soap shavings for something. I think that it is ironic that I ended up picking an animal thats fur is acutally used for sweaters and coats, it wasnt intentional at first, but I like the way it came out all together as a whole. Craving the soap was not the easiest thing but it was much easier with my second attempt even though both of my soaps were different. My first soap was a harder more dense soap and the second one was soft and had a strong fragrance in it, which made it hard to work with.
