Finally the mask forms turned up from C&C on Saturday, flattened so they all now have a crease down the middle and bend easily. Should send them back but just wanted to make this one up that I got on with it.
Painted the basic form gold. Cut up three sticks of FP Bronze, red and lime and well played around. loads of room for improvement, especially with the ribbon. Problem is I do not practice the technique enough that gives me a good reason to play more doesn't it?
Basically made for my pleasure still seems to fit.

ReplyDeleteHope you had a great weekend. Kim xx
well hun you made a brilliant job with this mask just love that gold,and all the other highlights you have added.
ReplyDeleteC & C are bad at not only sending stuff but they really need to improve on the way they package things too.
I know QVC is expensive for postage but at least its here withing a couple of days and so so well packaged,and the phone calls are free,making it easy if you need to ring,hugs cheryl xxxxx
A stunning mask Zoe and perfect detail, you do them so well.

ReplyDeleteHi Zoe,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comments. I wasn't fishing for a mask - honest. Whenever I see your lovely masks they always remind me of my Mum as she collected venecian masks. I now have some of them myself but they are in a box in the garage as I've nowhere to put them :( but I don't want to part with them either.
