Day 2 in Lawrenceville

Yesterday was a beautiful day to be working outside and (hopefully i won't jinx myself here) today looks like it should be pretty great as well. I had many new and returning visitors my second day in the box, as construction continued on the giant pine cone. People seem very interested (especially me) in seeing it come along.

Getting started on day 2

These girls came all the way from San Antonio to visit the Art Box in Lawrenceville (They might have also come to visit family friends but I'm pretty sure it was mainly the Art Box).

Finally time to get messy. Putting paper mache on the top of the pine cone.

Explaining the process to a curious onlooker.

Shorty came by again to keep me company and check on my progress.

Meeting some more folks.

So at the end of Day 2 i have successfully created a paper mache sombrero, witch hat, traffic cone, or upside down mushroom. I'm looking forward to getting back at it this afternoon because it will finall start to look like a pine cone! The next step is to cut out, assemble, and attach all the arms to the center core cone thing. Come visit me if you have a chance. Should be another gorgeous day!
