I’ve been making some masks over the last few weeks – using a low temperature melt thermoplastic (Instamorph, a similar product – but more expensive – product is sold under the brand Polymorph, both very similar to the stuff used in medical splints). This made into sheets, heated and draped over a clay form. Intended for active wear and performance, these have been painted with acrylic paint and varnished. I am trying out ways to ‘do’ eyes, as I want examples of different styles for a workshop happening soon.
