Coil building some kind of tube with the soft parafin wax. the problem and the beauty of the yellow wax is that it is so soft- it makes it wonderful to work with, soft and pliable and taxtile in the same way that clay is, but it doesn't keep its form well, it collapses under the fluctuation of temperature and won't hold its shape. I dream of some kind of long coiled wax tube, undulating over and across the hard clay sculpture, maybe I could find a way to preserve the wax forms.
