Manatee Project

This is the first project we worked on with Art with a Heart. We were intially only going to do the dichroic jewels that would go around the crown, (7 total), but we ended up helping out on the paper mache armor and the painting of the manatee. All the pieces are out of paper mache, cardboard, rope, shells, pvc piping and of course borosilicate glass. The manatee will be on display in downtown Jacksonville during the Superbowl and then on permanent display at Wolfson children's hospital on the sky walk downtown. This was one of two made in conjunction with Art with a Heart Foundation.
