Hey Caroline, :You_Rock_Emoticon:

Great tutorial and stunningly beautiful mask! You're so good with that metallic colouring of yours and I always love to see your masks.

Maybe your son gives mom proper respect from now on, lol.

Very Nice! Thanks for showing how you do this. :clapping: I was wondering how this was done. The paint is fabulous. Do you get wear and show off your masks anywhere? On that thought - your son should take your masks to show and tell at school - I bet his classmates would think that your work is "super cool".

I'm with your son - I love this mask!

Thank you so much for sharing your mask-making technique! I will do the same, since we use different thicknesses of leather and our techniques are also different.

But first, I need to catch up on the paperwork side of things. It seems like either my desk is overflowing with things that need attention, or my workbench is. Someday I'll achieve balance between the two : )

You see Roo, I knew I was right about you. AWESOME!!! This is one of my favorite pieces thus far.

Also, I am a firm believer in trickery with the kids. I mean, what sounds better? Let's play in the water with our toys, or time to take a bath.

Wow! thank you for posting this. I have to tell you that I never really appreciated masks before looking at your website a week or so ago - your masks are so poignant and expressive - I was completely floored! I had to show my wife and she had the same reaction. You are an incredible artist!

Where do you get leather that thin?

I didn't realize leather could be sculpted like this. Possibilities. Darn this new medium is going to get expensive.
