Mask Making Experiment

Mask making is one art project I have had a lot of requests for. Honestly, it's one I have wanted to do myself for a long time, but heasitated because of the commitment involved. Now that I've done the first part, I don't know why I waited!

The project takes two sessions. In the first session you make the shape of your mask. Then, after it has dried, in the second session you paint and decorate your mask. I asked a couple of friends to be guinea pigs with me for my first time guiding a two part project. As always, we were learned about ourselves, and were surprised at what our bodies had to teach us. Here are the results from step one!
