Papier mache mask, 'Kukulkan in Colors'
By Carina
An excellent decorative piece
It is impressive the mask design and more dramatic are the colors. It is a focus of attention. Love it.
Beadwork mask, 'Scorpions and Deer'
By Matt
Breathtaking!
It exceeded my expectations. The beadwork is incredible. The eyes are cut out yet they are so deep that they look black when hanging on the wall. Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there. Wondering...
