SciFi and Fantasy Art: Papier Mache Mask: the Bride

A brand new mask, completely constructed by hand from papier mache pulp and plaster gauze and marble paste. The veil is spiderweb netting (didn't come out at all in the scan, take my word for it) and she's painted with acrylic paints with acyrlic jewels added on. The bat is just a bit of plastic confetti. I should note that she's a wall-hanging only and while life-size, can't be worn.

21 Oct 2001		Loading... All of your masks (and paintings!) are fabulous, but this one is just so blindingly beautiful! The purple that reminds me of the iridescence of butterfly wings, the beads, and of course; the tiny bat! I think I'm in love....
28 Oct 2001	Aisja Lisa Wiersma	Loading... This must be the most beautiful one of your masks!! It's just so gorgeous! Thank you for sharing all your beautiful creations with us!!!!
14 Nov 2001	Lisa-J Scott	Loading... I agree with the above comment i like this best out of all your masks although they are all very original.. And i have a major phobia of masks that's why i haven't commented on them all, i have looked through them! X
11 Jan 2002	Maria	Loading... I like the mask, though I just wanted to say ONE thing about it (and your other masks). It would be awesome if you had it, um, a fleshy colour. It would look so neat ^_^
27 Mar 2002	Rebekah vamm_goda Garcia	Loading... Oh, wow. This looks like so much fun to do, but I know I would get so messy. They're all so beautiful.
12 Oct 2002	Marlena Cannon	Loading... stares at all the pretty masks Ahh, they're all so gorgeous. This one particularly caught my eye. I want to go to a masked Halloween ball so badly... even more so, now.
28 Feb 2003	Laura E. Wallace	Loading... Ooo, I admire you greatly. I did a paper mache mask two years ago in art class, let's just say it didn't turn out too well. ^_^ This is great, I have a ceramic face mask similar to this but this is paper mache very nice. I like the dark feel to it it's very beautiful. Keep it up! -Merulu
5 May 2003	Derek 'Sparky' Shore	Loading... I've seen a lot of masks in my time, but this one is beautiful, morbid, graceful, comforting, creepy... and so many more words than i have in my vocabulary! I love it! I wish i could have a mask like that...
