We learned which colors are predominately used( black white red), what the masks are made of (cedar), and typical shapes used. The masks were first drawn as half a mask in black oil pastel. Then the papers were folded and rubbed to transfer the design to the opposite side. This technique is important as the masks are symmetrical. Then other oil pastel colors are used to fill in the mask. So far they look very fierce.
Thanks PPalmer for the lesson plan!
