Artist Statement (what Emma69470 said about their artwork)
My favorite part of this artwork was seeing how well I did the eyes; they were probably the best realistic eyes I have ever made so far! My least favorite part of this was the hair, number one, making it a super time-consuming project, number two, seeing the final product with the hair made me a little disappointed, I probably could have done better with the hair.
About this School Project (Paper Mache Mask Project)
There is an art to crafting a quality paper mache mask using a plastic face mold. First, discover what size is best to tear paper, and second, figure out the water to paste ratio. Craftsmanship is important from the very beginning! If you hurry when building the layers, imperfections will show up later. Take your time building. For best results, create your final plan with a sketch first. Masks are a blank canvas -- with infinite possibilities and creative solutions!
