Wonderful assamblage. I especially like the railroad track at the bottom. So many things connected to HH Holmes, one of the most fascinating serial killers IMO. ^^ Great work!
You have a piece that is assemblage and it is not in the assemblage category. I would encourage you to change the category. I worked to get this category created and the powers that be took pity on us assemblage makers and lo there is now a special spot for us. But so many of the submissions are by young kids who dump sketches and drawing in there, so I have taken on the job of asking them to recategorize their miss place deviations, and now , I am looking for real assemblages that ought to go there. Think about it, it only takes a quit edit.
Love this. As someone who also likes to do assemblages, I'm curious about how you attach things to your shelf -- are you an epoxy person? Wire behind the scenes? Wood glue?
I mostly used a strong epoxy glue to hold everything down. It was one of my first assemblages, but luckily nothing has fallen off of it yet. Haha Thanks so much for the comment, I absolutely LOVE your work
Yeah, it's hard to beat epoxy for strength! I use it when I need a super strong bond, but I try to use white glue when I don't need something as strong -- just to avoid the fumes! Keep making cool stuff!
