This Grey Wolf Mask is an old favorite theme of mine. Every time I do one, I draw it free-hand on the leather so it's different each time. This is made from one piece of 8 oz leather (about a quarter of an inch thick), hand carved & shaped by hand (no forms or molds).
Painted with a combination of alcohol dyes & acrylic paints. Awoo!

The colors and textures are awesome, and you said this was leather? *gasp* I have to say, it's a little ironic that homecoming was tonight, and it was a masquerade, and I come home and find this on the front page. xD I have to say, it would have been soooo much easier to get a dress that would match this mask (would you believe how few decent black-and-gold dresses are out there? |
