Artist's Comments

This mask was commissioned on my Etsy site; a white, black, silver & pewter "Persian" leather mask. This is the companion mask to the other black& white-themed Persian mask in my previous entry.

It's called a Persian mask 'cause the pattern is based on my Persian rug. I usually do it in more traditional neutral tones like brown with gold & red (see elsewhere in my gallery for other examples) but this was a special request & I like the way it turned out.

Like all my work, this is hand-carved, hand shaped 8 oz leather, painted with Liquitex acrylic paints. I do take custom requests all the time at my Etsy shop: [link]

Now there is a stylin' piece of facewear, in my opinion; an excellent design, lots of detail, and outstandingly well painted.

Cool, black and white! I like this more than the 'coloured' version, actually...I find the design is even more striking like this. This looks like the male version and the whiter one looks like the female version :)

Thanks! That's what they are for; a his-n-hers set of masks for a formal "Black & White" Halloween masquerade ball. Doesn't that sound like fun?

Yeah, it does. :) (I'm totally in the mood to plan a party or ball right now. Not to GO to one, but I've been perusing the MSS site and all the crafts and stuff, getting photo ideas and home dec/organizing ideas and now I feel like making fancy cone favours and flower pom poms and ribbons of snowflakes and what kind of party has flowers and snowflakes at the same time anyway?)

THe Persian masks were always at the top of my list for faves but I don't really like earth tone combinations that much so this makes me like it even more. :)

I always thought it'd be SO much fun to be a party planner. There's a huge market for that you know! You do all the organizing & creative stuff & leave the mess for someone else...it seems ideal. :-)

That is sharp and very graphic!

Lol...I've always said it's 'so unfair' that you have to get married in order to have a wedding. I would have the COOLEST WEDDING EVER (not necessarily expensive, but VERY COOL ... or maybe very weird...hard to decide which is which) but it's not worth it if you have to keep the groom.
