Using a mix of papier mache and driftwood, I have produced a range of driftwood sailing boats sailing on a papier mache made sea. This technique provides a texturally rich sculpture bringing to life the experience of sailing a wooden boat on a choppy sea.
Boat made from flotsam, jetsam and papier mache adorn driftwood bases to create perfect coastal themed presents. If you want a simple stylish gift at a very realistic price these could be just the thing for you. The pieces above are all commissions and can be made to your requirements. Prices start at £45.00.
Further to producing small ceramic boats on driftwood I have further extended the range to mount the boat sculptures in a classic frame.
These boats can be either laid on paper or water weathered pieces of driftwood and are each individually signed, before framing.
I use a range of hand printed papers roughly torn and fragments of old boats or driftwood as backgrounds bases for the glass pieces. Some of the bases under the boats even come from an old Mirror dinghy!
I have created the following framed boats for sale. No two are ever the same. These are available to order. I always have a few in stock.
Boats can also be framed mounted on driftwood as below. Tell me which you like I will endeavour to create you a similar themed piece.
These can also be made with different background colours and are named individual nautical names. A commission could be made with a special name and colouring to suit your tastes. You may wish choose your own name of a boat you have connections with or a magical place you want to recall.
Prices range from £25 to £45. Please email me at anita@driftwood-dreams.co.uk to see what framed boats are in stock.
