I love masks, they are just fun and unique. This mask is especially a favorite of mine. I began this a very long time ago, and was working on completing it the weekend my mother died. It had been her mask when our family went to the Shakespearean Festival in Cedar City Utah, I did make a few alterations. I'm currently waiting on the finish coat to dry before I sign it and scan it. I took this picture and promptly dropped my camera in my water bucket. Clumsiness, art, and electronics are not a good mix in case you ever wondered. This piece started off being painted in ink, but the feathers did not turn out the way I wanted, so I painted them in acrylic, and painted over the rest of the piece except the eyes. I may try this piece again, but for now I'm just glad to have completed it, my mom would have been sad that I stopped. Keep looking at the world around you with new eyes.
