mask making

1. I chose the Native American Sea Man Mask, African Bobo Antelope and a picture I found on google that resembled african tribal art. I chose the Native American mask because I liked how the dark background looked with bright colors such as the orange. The African Bobo mask gave me the horned/chin idea on my mask I created. I also chose the picture of tribal art for the design on top of my mask. The lines and style of that gave me the inspiration needed for my mask.

2. The Native American mask shows a dark background allowing the bright colors to stand out on the mask. The red in the eyes along with the orange near the chin stand out. The African Bobo mask is more of an animal theme with a pointed chin, horn, and ears. The wood like color has greens along with reds. The tribal art is mainly pointed designs and different styles of lines that tie together.

3. Lines: continuos lines that give the mask style. Shape: an animal like theme with horns along with tribal lines. Color: a bright orange to catch the eyes, along with silver and gold with a black background.

4. I enjoyed creating this mask. It took me a long time in order to get an actual idea of what I actually wanted to create. It took some time due to the fact that my art work lacks, however was still entertaining.
