Alan Merrill
This piece is sold and is in a private collection.
I was asked to make Alan Merrill as a commisioned piece.
He has been made from puppen fimo polymer clay, baked to the manufacturers specifications to ensure that he is correctly cured. He is painted with thin layers of Genisis Heat Set paints to achieve a realistic skin tone.
Alan was built over a sturdy wire armature. His eyes are brown and are hand painted and glossed for realism. His hair is dark brown and made of fine quality mohair wool. His boots, jeans and shirt are made from clay, his jacket is made from velvet. His guitar was also handmade by myself, and is clay and mixed media - it is removable from the leather strap.
Alan stands on a base of laquered wood . He is removeable from his base.
In his standing position Alan measures approx 9 inches tall.
