New mask!! This is a mask inspired by the main character in the "Okami" video game...a Japanese wolf goddess. Her swirly fur is evocative of the sumi-e (ink painting) art style of ancient Japan. I usually do this design in the traditional white, but black is fun too!
The mask is hand carved from 8oz leather, shaped without a mold or form, & painted with a combination of Liquitex acrylics in jet black, bright red, and bright bronze.
