Duck Mask Creation. (Tomasito Photo)
No joke!
This morning (4/1/11) we had the very first meeting of interested clients at the Westview in Temecula for a session of papier mache fun--I almost said "work".
The suggestion was that we try to make a duck mask so I demonstrated the technique of papier mache to make a wearable duck mask.
We used a paper grocery sack stuffed with wadded up newspaper for a maquette and taped on some big "eyes" of wadded newspaper and a bill of cardboard.
The group quickly got the hang of tearing newspaper strips and dipping them into good flour and water boiled paste-- and almost before we knew it-- there was a mighty ducky-looking mask!
We left it to dry over the weekend and Monday we may be able to finish it! Then we hope to get going on a bunny mask just in time for Easter.
