Native American Paper Sculptures



 These are absolutely Beautiful!!!





 Sculptures of Native American scenes made out of paper
by Allen and Patty Eckman
[image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty Eckman]
 *These stunningly detailed sculptures may only be made from paper - but
they are being snapped up by art fans for tens of thousands of pounds. The
intricate creations depict Native American scenes and took up to 11 months
to make using a specially formulated paper*

 **

*Husband and wife team Allen and Patty Eckman put **paper pulp** into clay
moulds and pressurise it to remove the water*

 **

 *The hard, lightweight pieces are then removed and the couple painstakingly
add detailed finishings with a wide range of tools*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty

 *They have been making the creations since 1987 at their home studio, in
South Dakota , America , and have racked up a whopping £3 million selling
the works of art*
**
**

 *The pieces depict traditional scenes from **Native American history** of
Cherokees hunting and dancing*
**

 *The most expensive piece is called Prairie Edge Powwow which sold for
£47,000*

 *Allen said: "We create Indians partly because my great, great grandmother
was a Cherokee and my family on both sides admire the native Americans...*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty

 *...I work on the men and animals and Patty does the women and children"
explains Allen*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty

 *"I enjoy most doing the detail. The paper really lends itself to unlimited
detail. I'm really interested in the Indians' material, physical and
spiritual culture and that whole period of our nation's history I find
fascinating. From the western expansion, through the Civil War and beyond is
of great interest to me."*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty

 *Allen explained their technique: "It should not be confused with papier
mache. The two mediums are completely different. I call what we do 'cast
paper sculpture'"*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty
Eckman]
 *..."Some of them we create are lifesize and some we scale down to 1/6
lifesize"*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty
Eckman]
 *"These sculptures are posed as standing nude figures and limited detailed
animals with no ears, tails or hair"*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty
Eckman]
 *"We transform them by sculpting on top of them - creating detail with soft
and hard paper we make in various thicknesses and textures.*
**
**
   [image: Paper art of Native American indians made by Allen and Patty
Eckman]
 *"We have really enjoyed the development of our **fine art
techniques**over the years and have created a process that is worth
sharing. There are
many artists and sculptors who we believe will enjoy this medium as much as
we have."*
