Artist's Comments
Well, again I'm not sure if this mask is really in keeping with this gallery (which is supposed to be my "Asian-themed" art), but I'm so darn pleased with this mask that I can't help sharing it!
I was trying to re-create the look of an aged bronze lion statue, with this mask. I wasn't really sure that the treatment would translate well, but the more I developed the coloring (a series of paint layers ranging dark green through aqua & finally bright bronze) the happier I was with the overall effect. As always, this is made of hand carved, hand shaped leather. No molds or forms are used; the design is entirely my own. If you like my work, please visit my Etsy shop! [link] |

 reports, 1d 21h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

It was a beautiful statue. c:
I like lions. They make such a beautiful motif. Especially with the European touch.

The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "save us!"...
