What a busy time around the workshop! There's a lot going on. I'm running a show that I co-directed for Theatre Caravel and making plans for an upcoming Fringe show. And when I'm not doing that I'll be teaching a few mask making workshops.
The first is a paper mask making workshop for an amazing festival called Uth Daze. Here's a little but more about it:
"Uth Daze is a 3-day FREE festival from May 4th-6th 2012 at the Artscape Wychwood Barns in Toronto & an official National Youth Arts Week event! This multi-arts event happens as part of b current’s 11thannual rock.paper.sistahz Festival, and features workshops for school and community groups, Up-Cycling: A Fashion Event, the Jr Juke Joint improvised performances, and an All Day Experience of creative activities, workshops, and performances for kids, youths and all!"

 |  | While all that is going on, I've also started work on some reproductions of some little sculptures of heads I've made. Remember that smiling guy I posted pictures of a while ago? Well, now he's got a perfect replica made of high quality resin. Every detail is captured - it's incredible. As a mask maker I'm obsessed with faces so it's only natural that I would start to sculpt these little personalities. |
I'm going to post a series on the making of this guy, because it was a lot of fun. These little heads will be for sale online starting soon. I'm in the process of setting up on online store which will have these guys as well as some masks for sale. Until then if you're interested in buying one, send me a message and I can send one along.
I'll leave you with a few pictures of the newest addition to the family of little heads. Enjoy!
