This mask was made using half of what is called a milk bottle gourd.It measures a total of 16 1/2" tall,the gourd is 10 1/2" and the feathers add another 6".It measures 8" wide.
I used black and white acrylic paints.Feathers are turkey,guinea,rooster,and blackbird.It has been sprayed with three coats of polyurethane to protect the finish.
I have not yet been able to find the words to descibe this mask.Very powerful.
