SciFi and Fantasy Art: Papier Mache Mask: Ostara

This mask was inspired by a design by Katja Alakotila. Go check out her work, she's wonderful! Ostara is made of the usual papier mache, plaster, marble paste etc and is painted in acrylics. Her necklaces are hand-beaded and her eyelashes are hand-painted. Her headband actually wraps around and become the back of her eyes.

This is very beautiful!!! I saw the thumbnail and I was so impressed!!! Shes so frightening-looking! actually, I am viewing the little thumbnail in the corner of the comment box here, and I think this would look AWESOME in a larger picture...oh please please give her a body and a background and something to be staring down!! She looks like lady death!

She is indeed magnificient.
Fantastic work, and the detail is superb.
I'd love to see your masks meet halfway with some of your sillier, more whimsical work. that would be a neat addition!

WOW *breath is taken away* She is gorgeous. Simply stunning. If she were a real person, I can imagine she would have a troubled past, eyes always brimmed with tears, afraid to let them flow...and so many would try to get close to her, try to understand her inner pain but she would look at them with her cold, soul-less black eyes in a way that says "You could never possibly understand me" pull her cloak around her tighter and dissappear off into the icy shadows, leaving her former compainion to wonder the rest of their life, about her. Superb Job.

Linsey... *sigh* So true... so true... You read my mind. That's how I thought about the eye when I drew it... : )
And Daena... sweetie... STILL I'm so glad that you wanted to give the eye a face... : ) *HUG*

This picture is disturbing.
I say its disturbing because it takes me back into the dreams of my youth. In those dreams the most common creature that scared me was a woman. I don`t remember her having a face, although I remember she had very long skinny fingers, and hands as well. She was tall evil and nasty. Perhaps your creation has long fingers. Perhaps she will hant my dreams tonight. I will be ready.

Hello. You are not 27 anymore! You are so old now (like me, whah)! Look at all the pretty masks and watercolors. Surely you shall update soon, with most awesome art of all, Faery of the Goblins! 12

This is an amazing piece of work. Has anyone ever asked you to use on of your images for an album cover? I would totally use it for my band.
