Step 1: Research Requirements:
1.Research a region of the world where maskmaking is part of the cultural tradition. Research each one of these regions:
Tibetan
African animal Mask
African wood mask
Balinese Mask
Venetian Carnival mask
Tlingit Mask
Mayan Wooden Mask
2. Notetaking:
Decide what region produces masks that you are most interested in.
Make a list of the characteristics.
Note the patterns, carving work, and embellishments used.
Note the shape of the eyes, mouth, ears, nose, face, etc…
**Write these notes in your sketchbook
3. Print out at least 3 reference images. These will get turned in with your final watercolor.
4. In your sketchbook, draw 3 completely different masks designs by referencing the internet images. Yes, 3 fairly detailed sketches. All 3 designs should demonstrate similar characteristics to those found in your chosen region/culture.
**How to begin:
Start with a basic shape (triangular, oval, teardrop)
Draw the eyes (exaggerated, wide, almond-shaped, heavy eyelids)
Draw the nose (long and skinny, short and wide, stylized and simplified)
Draw the mouth (exaggerated, open, closed, small lips, large lips, simplified)
Draw the surface patterns and textures.
Shade in the areas (add value) to create 3-dimensional forms.
Shade in the areas that will be pierced/cut out/blacked out.
5: Show your 3 different sketches to Mrs. Clone to receive final project paper. Mrs. Clone will help you determine the best composition for your final painting.
6. Create a drawing that UTILIZES ALL OF THE PAPER and incorporates details, facial feature characteristics, and stylistic choices similar to those produced in the region of your choice. This must be a unique, one-of-a-kind representation. You CANNOT simply copy one that you like from the internet. Paper clip your reference images to your painting and refer to them, as needed.
**The mask surface should be over 50% pattern and repetition/design work.
**The mask should has a minimum of 5 values.
