| Introduction | my name is marlena rivers...yeah, sounds like a fake name or porn star name, and it is a fake name. no i'm not a porn actress, but i had to create a name for this blog. because i'm not OUT at work about the bipolar thing... so some of this blog is about the dual identity thing... because it is a trip and i feel like a double agent, posing at work as a "normal" person and out to some friends and family... This blog used to focus on my relationship with my little doggie but he died in 2009. It also used to involve comic strips. I hope to bring that back sometime soon. Meanwhile I'll be focusing on the idea of "hiding" my bipolar disorder and what that is like for me, and if it has changed since having the "baby" who is not a baby any more! |

What kind of tape is best for creating a sculpture?
any kind. depends what color i want and how i want the tape to look as part of the sculpture or if i want it to be invisible in the sculptue. i just made one using some kind of blue very strong tape, some silver duct tape and masking tape. i love tape. it would be fun to make a sculpture only out of tape...
