More mask

Okay, latest report on the papier mache experiment--my thought is that this stuff is great for wearables, possibly not so great for display pieces. (Although I made a thicker version and we'll see whether that one is firmer.) I'm also thinking that the girls' papier mache masks might not be ready to paint tomorrow.

However, the one I made from "Carve and Cast" might be ready to smooth with the dremel, assuming it finishes drying now that it's off the mold. Hope so, anyway. I have lots of fake grape leaves (and grapes) and am ready to play!

Altars etc.

Dan put up my altar to Dionysos today--it's still empty, but looks good anyway. I'm so pleased to have it up!

I've been planning to make a mask to use as an image, papier mache and paint and so forth. At least, that's the plan. I'm not sure I have the skill to do a good job, never having made one before, but I'm looking forward to giving it a shot.

We do, actually, have a mask that I could use. Dan reminded me of it today. We got it a few years back when we went to Convocation, and it certainly has a Dionysian look to it. But I'm not sure if I want to use it or not.

In any case, I'm going to try to do my own.
