Comedy Masks Term 2

In Term 2 for art we have been studying and creating masks inspired by the Ancient Greek comedy and tragedy masks. First, we made a mould out of scrunched-up newspaper.

After that we did papier-mache over the top- a few layers. Once it was dried we painted it and removed the mask from the clay. Here's my finished product!!
