Artist's Comments

Wow...talk about a blast from the past!

Going through my things for no particular reason, I found my box full of sculptures from my senior year of high school - for right now, this was the highlight of my life as an artist.

This is a mask I made as part of my senior project. I made 5 of them but I only wanted to share a select few with you guys. As you can see, I made a mold of my own face in order to create these masks.

This particular mask was inspired by the facial make-up of Kabuki actors. Sadly, I don't know their meaning, only that it looks really intimidating...perhaps that of a water spirit?

I made the marking with a kind of ceramic paint (that I forget the name of now) that you paint directly on the clay before you fire it in the kiln. The end result was really fantastic!
