More Pics of the Snake mask

The mask is done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was based on the Medusa Brooch by Lalique.

Of course-the brooch has the snakes going down-I needed them to be facing up( that is why the book is upside down). So here it is. Enjoy

Wow Tanith. I just went to your blog and your masks are stunning. It's great to see someone who is getting recognition. I'm still am but a larvae afraid to commit.

Hi Phillip, I can't wait to see her sister:)) Another amazing piece I bet!

I really appreciate your kind words, they mean a lot, thank you so much:) Though I'm also still a caterpillar waiting to turn into a butterfly :/ In my full-time day job I work in a library, it's very frustrating at times as I'd love to be able to spend so much more time with the masks. But I can dream and the recognition certainly helps ;)

It's a pleasure to meet another mask maker, there aren't that many of us about I often feel.. well certainly not working in paper in one form or another.

Best Wishes and I await those piccies with great anticipation :))
