Mardi Gras World in New Orleans (photo heavy)

[theantiquetiger]

Morgan (my youngest), had their school field trip to Mardi Gras World. It is the largest company that makes all the characters and floats for Mardi Gras.

These are all hand sculpted out of styrofoam, hand papermache'd, and hand painted.

I will post some images of the artists at work in the people section

What a really cool set. I love the colour and each is very nicely composed. Thanks for sharing.

Love the colour and exquisite detail in all these well composed shots AT.

Really nice set, AT. I have a very creepy black and white shot of a NOLA jester that looks very similar to that last one you posted.
