Masks

As part of my exhibition at the local gallery I have made a series of masks.  I really had a good time making these and I love the way they have turned out.

First up is the Forest Mask.  This is made with die cut leaves and a little nest and eggs in her hair.  The markings on her face are made with eggshells and gems that were painted.





Next is a mask made with Powertex, fabric, nuts and bolts and gears and finished with Finnabair rust paste.




Another mask was made to look as if it was coming out of a stone garden wall.


Then I made one with crocheted doilies, Powertex and Art Alchemy paints.


Lastly I made a steampunk mask which I had previously made as just a mask.  Then I added the canvas background
