Patricia Ballentine with almost finished "Green Woman" mask
 |
Getting started: casting a face with a partner |
 |
Time for the other partner |
 |
A meditative moment within the (quickly) drying new cast |
 |
And off it comes! |
 |
Yes, that's you! The negative cast waiting to be filled with plaster |
 |
Getting Plastered! |
 |
An Alter for the process |
 |
Cleaning the new plaster positive from the cast |
 |
Now we have a perfect cast of each face |
 |
Shaping the vegetable tanned leather over the plaster cast |
 |
Shaped on the plaster cast, a leather mask |
 |
Mask has been fixed, textures added, and given an undercoat of paint |
 |
The finished mask after the last coat of paint |
 |
Finished! |
 |
Thinking about what Story the mask may tell |
 |
Stories abide! |
