M-seal face mask

Lately i hv been concentrating on M-seal art. Next in the series are these woman /man wall masks.

Method

1. I already had an old broken mask which i used to get the base for my mask. Tightly wrap  a polythene around the old mask and cover it with m-seal  clay.
2. Let it dry for a while. After that take it out frm the polythene. Now you have got the basic structure of face mask.
3. Then i made a long snake of m-seal & attached it from the top of the mask  till  the center. Then i painted the base & nose.
4. I also painted eyes, lips, mustache, hair accordingly using fevicryl acrylic colors.
5. For the stand on which the masks are hanging, hv used a simple ply, got it cut according to the design u see in the picture. This is entirely optional.
6. Hv decorated the ply with flowers & leaves made of leftover ceramic dough. This again depends on ur choice. U can also use m-seal for the same.
7. Lastly hv colored them with acrylic colors.

I hope this will give u some innovative ideas that u can try out with m-seal.

Thanks for hopping on my blog !!!!!!!!

Friendship Day

Hv made this parchment card to celebrate friendship day. This card is for all my friends who stood by me thru thick & thin and who hv been supportive of me at all times irrespective of the fact whether i was right or wrong. Today i also miss my school/college friends with whom i had shared a major portion of my life and with whom i hv lost touch. Hopefully, i will find them soon and will try to recreate the lost magic. That would be truely nostalgic.

Once again 'HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY" to every body .

Thanx for taking out time from ur busy schedules and visiting my blog !!!
