Looks pretty good by itself, no additional paint or embellishment.
Hung the mask plain right after drying to see the effect.
Added bronze metallic paints.
Enhanced with some gold paint.
Cloth masks using a plastic face mask as the base with white gauze and glue.
Adhesive is half white glue like school or Elmer’s and half very warm water mixed.
Two pieces 10″ x 14″ of any thin, gauzy fabric to layer and shape to the mask after thoroughly coating with the glue.
Layering, one at a time, smooth each one in place to the base. Set in the eyes and shape up the nose area. layer the edges to your preference.
Used this mask for a Native American Theme with leaves, feathers and beads and a scroll that was transferred to fabric and melted around the edges.
This mask has one layer fabric for base and layed with colored tissue paper. Painted the base canvas board to compliment the mask colors and shapes, added grapes as per mask and picture of wine and glasses.
These pieces are still in progress, will up date later when completed.
Very cool.
Thanks!
