Angela Termarsch is a Vancouver Island artist, working in mixed (recycled) media. She utilizes multiple techniques to create unique, funky, whimsical sculptures for indoors or out by using “Paverpol" (a non-toxic liquid medium, which cures to a weatherproof finish).
Angela carries accreditation from Paverpol International as both an
Instructor (2013) and a Master (2014) and is also the Regional Director
and Distributor for B.C and Alberta.
From thrift store finds, she collects unique artifacts to use as the bases for her sculptures.Then starting with foil and wire (or steel rod), she creates a basic form. Recycled cotton t-shirts are then cut and dipped in Paverpol,
wrapping the form and "mummifying" it. The same process is then used to
“dress" her signature pieces with recycled natural fibers; lace (tablecloths,
doilies), cotton, hemp, silk, and wool. Once completed, sculptures cure for three weeks before being dry-brushed with varnish and pigment and then they are ready for the outdoors.
