Keith- As a first step to creating a sculpture from this drawing, You could make a bas relief by first recreating this in 3-D in clay. Let it harden, then create a rectangular frame for it before pouring in plaster. The clay can then be dug out of the plaster. Cover all of the surface of the mold with vaseline, place back in the frame, then pour in plaster of paris. Follow the directions on the plaster package for drying directions (covering with plastic for a certain amount of time.) I did this with a drawing of a montage of body parts (you may remember it was in my student show and is now in Florida.)It would be awesome! It's not as hard as it sounds. Julie Docka
By the way, I like your collection very much. Keep working on the backgrounds. You're turning into a master of three-dimensionality in 2-D.
