For this project, we are creating masks that will be formed directly ot your face. They will fit you and no one else.
Once we have formed the mask, we will use a variety of sculptural techniques to turn the mask into a work of art.
Additive: building onto the surface of the mask
Subtractive: Means carving into another material
Mixed Media or Construction: means attaching elements to your base mask.
Here is a link that shows lots of masks to help you get started:
