Talented American artists, spouses Allen and Patty Eckman (Allen and Patty Eckman), work wonders from plain paper, turning it into living images.
Their art is similar to bronze casting, it is a very painstaking and delicate work that takes a lot of time and requires a lot of endurance. To create paper masterpieces, Allen and Patty Ekman use their original method (which is radically different from papier-mâché). It is with the help of the technology they invented that they make the paper impression. When the cast is removed from the mold, a very delicate study of details begins and the birth of a light snow-white sculpture.
The thematic characters created by the Ekman are directly related to their interests and hobbies. Allen creates on the theme of the native people of America - Indians, just like his great-great-grandmother was from the Cherokee tribe. He is fascinated by their physical and spiritual culture. Historical events during the conquest of America and the Civil War are reflected in the works of the sculptor.
“When I look at a flower, I see not only the color, I see the shape, the bizarre outlines and images that color radiates” - in truth the words of a true connoisseur of wildlife, which is Patty Ekman.
Patty also works in Indian themes, sculpting women and children.
