Nanas (inspired by the work of the artist Niki de Saint Phalle) are popular and are often made in all variations and sizes.
Many roads lead to Rome... In this video, I show in fast-forward just one of the many ways you can make a small Nana out of chicken wire and papier-mâché. It is a small and stable version, which was smoothed with putty at the end. You can also save the smoothing if you can accept a rough surface.
Even if it looks simple in the short version, the amount of work is not to be underestimated and you should plan a few hours. You also have to allow for drying times between individual work steps.
But it's worth it: the result is a sturdy Nana blank that you can paint and design in all kinds of ways.
Have fun looking at it and trying it out!
More variations will follow;-)
