For my latest project, I crafted a unique statue of a human sitting on a large mushroom. The statue is designed to give an impression of a gradual transformation of grass into stone. Now, let me take you through the process of creating these two objects. To begin with, I used two soda bottles for casting the statue and the mushroom from plaster. Subsequently, I sketched out the shapes and textures of these objects and carefully carved them out. After I achieved the desired shapes and textures, I painted them with natural colors. I used green for the grass, gray for the stone, red and yellow for the mushroom, and brown for the trunk. All of these colors complement each other beautifully. In conclusion, the final outcome is a stunning picture of a human statue sitting atop a large mushroom, depicting the gradual transformation from grass to stone that was intended.
