My Shop on Spoonflower

Change of Life



I am slowly rolling out a new collection of designs on Spoonflower called "Change of Life."  The designs are based on one papier mache mask which I did several years ago.  The mask was covered with bleeding tissue paper, then coated with a clear acrylic coating.  In the eyes sockets, I placed two small square mirrors.  On top of those mirrors are images of my eyes. My husband and children find the mask creepy, but my grandchildren love it. The slide into menopause is as traumatic as changing from a little girl to a teenager.  So many changes, so many different feelings, so many highs and lows.  I tried to reflect this in this mask.
