Mask Painting Workshop

On Friday March 12th I went to a Carnival Mask painting workshop at a professional mask painter's workshop. There were several students from my school that went with me and one of our advisors. We got to choose a mask and then paint it with a base coat of paint. I chose black. Then I brushed gold paint on my mask and hand painted the rest with a brush and a small pointed tube of gold paint. It took me about an hour and a half to finish painting and for my mask to dry. There were many other masks hanging on the walls of the workshop so it was easy to get inspiration but difficult to choose a design at first.
