Hi! And welcome to my Mannequin Heads Page. This is where I will list all the assemblages that are made using mannequin heads. Some are the mannequin heads a hair stylist might use to practice on, while others are styrofoam head forms, the kind used to display wigs or hats. I created these various pages so that visitors who may be interested in seeing a specific genre of the work I've made over the years, can see them all in one place. If you see one that is of interest to you, and you would like to read more about the piece, click on the title, and you will be taken to the page where I have described the piece and the process. As you will see, each piece is unique and one of a kind. A RED DOT ● next to the title indicates that a piece is sold. If you would like one of your very own, email me. I happily take commissions, and am able to ship anywhere. Have fun looking, and let me know what you think.

Bling Princess and decorated Pringle Tin By Sue Smyth Hi Bloggers and friends This is my contribution this month! I have had this foam head for a while in my workshop. And have had a lot of ideas running through my head as to how to alter it. So finally this is it. But I need help! If anyone has ideas on what to call it please leave a comment. I kind of thought a bling princess or android, but it is kind of mermaidish to. Except it has wings, so I am not really sure what she is ...lol I have had so much on lately, I did not even take photos of it as I was making it. So sorry no little tutorial. Instead I just took lots of photos for you to enjoy of the details To start with any styro foam, you must paint it with a PVA based glue. This protects it from any chemicals that may eat the foam. You can then use this as a base to paint with gesso and decorate as you would a canvas. I wanted to make a crown, and started with a corner flourish and a metal trinket. But as I worked I kept adding things and that got a little lost. I had lots of long pearl hat pins,and just kept putting them in until I was happy. Then I found large rhinestones and pearls in my stash and had to include them. And some awesome glass tiles. It is funny how you find more and more things that suit when you rummage through your stash. I have used Finnabairs gold roses, which if you paint with gesso and spray come up like a metal rose. I have also used chipboard either side as a vine or leaves, always consider snipping chipboard up. To adhere chipboard onto a curve, first dampen it with water, then adhere with PVA type of glue. In this case I could insert pins to help it bond. I love how some of the styro has almost changed into a reptilian look. I have used false eyelashes and pins for eyebrows to give the styro head a little character. I did not just want to decorate the head, that would have been predictable. So using the fact that chemicals will eat the foam, I cut a hole in the head and sprayed paints and glue into it until I had a nice eroded look. Then I have added cogs to look like the inside workings of an Android brain! The back must always look nice too. I have used the large butterfly, feathers and a smaller monarch butterfly to create a set of layered wings. First I have painted them black, with spray paint. Then I have layered over metallic paints, rubbing them in with my finger. Around the edge of the large butterfly I have adhered small beads for texture. The feathers have lots of white linen dylusions flicked over them before I have rubbed in metallic paint. Nice close up of the brain cavity ! Again the cogs have been painted black first, then gold and purple metallic paint rubbed in. Once in place I have used liquid pearls to add details. I have used the peacock feathers as my colour palette. When adhering rhinestone swirls add a little extra glue to give a great bond, as often the adhesive is not strong enough. I have added old earrings, beads and rhinestones for texture and shine. Here I have used the hexagonal chipboard, both the positive and negative pieces as a base on the head. To soften the look, I have sprayed muslin and tucked it around the back an sides. Add lots of bling to the head piece for a rich look. Here are some of the chipboard shapes but there are probably too many to remember Imaginarium Chipboard My next project is a humble pringle tin altered. First cover the tin with and gel medium and layer over hand towel or textured wall paper. When dry then coat with gesso, and spray with inks as usual. Rub over with gold paint to highlight the texture. I have painted the heart with gesso first, then sprayed with Red dylusions, then coat with dimensional magic. Sprinkle with red micro beads and allow to dry. I have snipped in half to use it. I love using glitter as a colouring agent, it is not just for sparkle. For the doiley I have painted it with gesso, inked it with turquoise ink and coated with Dimensional magic. sprinkle with turquoise glitter and allow to dry. The glitter will sink down into the Dimensional magic and you will have very little glitter shed. Add lots of pearls as a contrast and some black eyelash fibre.

This is Iris Sclera. She's very wiggly. Once everyone learned the word 'trypophobia' from memes, her popularity among friends and lovers dwindled. She's just under 30cm/12inches high. She's a hand-painted mannequin head for your wigs, hats, or just to hang out in your room and watch you sleep.  As a hand-painted thing she's perfectly imperfect, with brush strokes, colour variations, and all the idiosyncracies that make life worth living. That's art. Acrylic on polystyrene.
