Breaking Dragon Bones, Snipping Dragon Scales
With any project, the frantic final days always take me off guard. By the time I finished making the structure and papered the skeleton with a golden orange, I wasn’t sure I could pull it off. I was tired. I was on the verge of smashing everything- I do mean sloshing everything with lighter fluid and setting it ablaze. I had dragon fever!
Luckily, a band of support came to my rescue. My sister fueled me with a much needed chocolate chunk cookie and papered all the teeth. The day before installation, my bf and friend/roomie reconfigured the string of holiday lights to work before they pasted on the scale details to the dragon’s body. It was miraculous that things came together like they did.
