Primitive Paper Mache Santa Claus in an Old World Vintage Style

One of my favorite Santa's in my collection of OOAK's. I created and sculpted him with that primitive look in mind. He's painted a rich, deep burgundy with a antique gold trim around his hat. His sack is a hunter green with moss and mini pine cones. He sits on a recycled pallet board.
After he was sculpted he was painted with acrylic paints and antiqued. I then mixed a 2 part epoxy resin and gave him a liberal coat. He has a glossy finish that make the details POP! 2024
