How to make a variety of materials high relief? It's very simple

Now the goods in hand-made style are gaining popularity. Included in the fashion interior decoration with their own hands. With the help of available materials and simple technologies, it's easy to make interesting souvenirs and jewelry yourself. Great looks such a thing as high relief - this is one of the types of relief, which is characterized by a large amount of protruding elements of the image. It is made of plasticine, gypsum, paper, in the technique of woodcarving.

Plasticine or mass for modeling

This is the simplest option, which is suitable for children's creativity. To create a beautiful souvenir you will need the following:

• plasticine;
• stack;
• the basis.

A high relief is a half-volume image on the plane of an object. For plasticine, a veneer, and a complex round shape, such as a vase, a glass, a box, are also suitable.

You can take a lot of modeling or plasticine - ordinary children's color or sculptural monophonic. Remember that the latter is more solid. Molding from it is not easy, especially for the child. It is better to cut it with a knife or a plastic stack. For children's creativity, take bright colors. As a first experiment, try to make a bas-relief. If you need to fully and volumely transfer an element, it is worth using a high relief. This is the most suitable option. It is easier to make than a three-dimensional sculpture, and in effectiveness it is not inferior to a three-dimensional object.

Souvenirs made of paper

From this simple material, both bas-relief and high relief are easily made. Apply different methods of folding the sheet, gluing the parts, that is, a three-dimensional application is obtained . It is interesting to look at works from both monophonic design paper and colored sheets of pastel or bright shades. It all depends on the purpose of the object being executed.

Decorative wood products

Any version of the relief can be made using thread technology. Do it both for gypsum, and for special solid masses, but it is easiest to use a tree. They produce decorative cutting boards, panels and other household items and decorations for the interior: stools, chairs, tables, shelves, wooden spoons, mugs, vases, chests.

Interior decoration from gypsum

The relief and bas-relief are used for decorative purposes when decorating objects of everyday life, interior, architecture. You can make this decor with your own hands. You will need the following materials:

• Dry gypsum, alabaster, cement or plaster;
• plywood;
• Rails;
• polyethylene film;
• Capacity and a stick for the preparation of the composition;
• Tile adhesive.

The work is done like this:

1. From plywood and slats make a mold for pouring the substrate. It is better to choose a square or a rectangle.
2. Lining the resulting wooden "box" with a plastic film. Well, if there is a greenhouse. It gives a smooth surface to the slab, since it does not fit into the folds.
3. Mix with water the gypsum or other mass that you have chosen. Bring to the consistency of sour cream. It should not be too thick, as it will need to be poured. Too liquid mixture will harden for a long time, and the object will be less durable. In case of high relief, the plate should be reinforced with metal reinforcement. Fill the slurry into the mold.
4. Wait until the tile hardens, but not completely. In the case of gypsum, it will take about half an hour. Cement freezes longer, but in any case no more than 12 hours. Otherwise, the subsequent layers will not connect well to the substrate.
5. Turn the form over. Get the plate.
6. On its smooth surface, apply a pre-prepared pattern, for example, on a stencil draw with a marker or a sharp object, scratch out the contours.
7. Begin to gradually add layers of the 3D image. To begin with, it is better to make protruding parts of a small height.
8. After the final hardening of the finished work, treat the surface with sandpaper and strengthen the decor on the wall with a tile adhesive.

If you have already mastered the technique of performing bas-relief, start making high relief. This is a more interesting way of transferring objects. Manufacturing technology is the same as described above, only the penultimate stage will be more difficult and take longer. After all, the volume parts will have to be done not in one step. It is the height of the protruding elements and the high relief. The photos clearly demonstrate this.

So, you learned what a high relief is and how it can be made independently. Choose your favorite technique and start an exciting creative process of creating a souvenir yourself.
