Jessica Cooper- Bear Rug

"Randal" the bear rug, at the opening:




She didn't really 'comit' to the photo as much as I would have liked...







The finished Bear Rug:

Process:

So, this week I tried to think of ideas and consepts for the patterning on the rug.

I thought of maybe like a bones-muscles-fur layers type thing.




And a holes-in-animals-with-plants-growing-out type thing.... a motif in some other paintings in my senior project.

Cooper's Project:

I'm going to make a bear rug of sorts out of taxidermy form(s), fabric/faux fur, and clay. It may have many heads, or legs, or be a strange shape or have odd patterns or something to tie it in with my senior show... I haven't decided the specifics yet. If I have time, it would also be fun to do something with one of the full-body taxidermy forms.

I like the ones with the jaw-sets installed. I've ordered taxidermy forms before, but never ones with jaw sets.
These mountain lion forms would be amazing but are expensive.

These fawns are more reasonably priced and I could connect them into one 8 legged, two headed fawn...
