Wood and latex paint
Sizes vary
 
 
Still going along with the personal space, I decided to make it extremely personal. Each piece is made of wood strips that vary in width, length and angle. As they eventually form this basket like shape, the whole shape is a headpiece. To create more of a connection between each strip of wood I wrapped the entire piece in saran wrap and then poured a latex house paint mixed with Elmers glue inside. I was constantly spinning and turning it to spread the paint evenly, When the paint was dry enough I peeled the wrap off gently trying to keep as much paint on as possible. I still wanted a decent amount of the wood showing because that is the most beautiful part.
