The process:
sculpt the preliminary study of the mask with modelling clay
prepare the paper clay (papier-mâché) with leftover pulp from my recycled handmade paper making process 🌿♻️💚
add an initial layer of papier-mâché to the modelling clay base
add more refined papier-mâché to define the facial features
remove modelling clay from dried mask
sand, seal, paint and add details
