For
this piece a mold was made from the bark of an actual fallen log
(thanks Donny & Mr.Velke!) and cast in polygem onto a fiberglass
reinforced concrete forming tube. Other elements were carved in
foam, then reinforced with fiberglass and epoxy (note the turkey-tail
fungus cast from actual specimens). Painted with vinyl acrylics,
the log is approximately 6 feet long and 12" around.
