These digital templates enable you to download, print and build your very own unique No Polygon 3D Mask. You’ll require no experience, no shipping and no waiting around to get started. Over 150 unique designs here on www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Wintercroft THE ALL-SEEING EYE Hark! The Divine Verse needs no chorus. Be held in the scan of the All Seer and bask in the light cast from the retinal void. You are seen through completely, naked to the vision of the vistal void behind the sun. Pleasure is laden in the illumination of all secrets within, as the blazing gaze anoints all hidden. Purification scorch and cleanse, leaving truth in another face. One Eye, one vision, crowned in rays that splay into the ever. Refract, rejoice and don the face of the new day. The All Seeing Eye Half Mask leaves the back of a human head exposed and uses less materials than one of the Full Masks. All you need is a bit of ribbon or elastic for a headband and you’ll be ready to go. The Half Mask is a great option for first-time builders, kids or for when you need a Mask-on-the-go. We hope you enjoy the build as much as the finished Mask. Our No Poly Masks are our latest advancement in Papercraft Mask design. Whilst in keeping with our overall manifesto of helping you to create beautiful and fun things, No Poly is a completely new design-and-build experience for you - a preternatural evolution from the restrictions of Low Poly - that lets us push the boundaries of what can be achieved. The templates and instructions are supplied as a PDF that is available to download as soon as you complete your purchase, so there is no waiting for the mail. Simply download your PDF and print the templates on normal printer or copier paper. Just glue the paper to the card of your choice and your ready to create. We’ve set out the templates so that they are FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH A4 AND US LETTER PAPER. You also get instructions on how to fit your mask. All our templates are made by using a tabbed construction method. Please be aware that you are buying the templates and instruction only so you will also need access to a printer, paper, card, tape or glue and scissors. We believe in minimising our environmental impact, so the Masks are designed to be made from either reclaimed or locally-sourced card. Old packaging boxes work well. We find that empty cereal boxes are perfect, but you can also use 300gsm card purchased from a local craft store. Having printed the templates on paper, stick them to card, cut them out, match the numbers and join the parts together. Why not build a Mask with your kids? The templates are scaled to fit an adult, but you can easily make children's masks by scaling down the templates when you print, check our FAQs on our “Policies” page for details.

For the 2018 marketing of Barcelona’s long-running Grec Festival, which includes dance, theater, circus, and music, the London-based Lobulo Studio was tapped to create a series of unusual paper masks. Using the prompt “new species,” Lobulo explains on their website that they were “playing with the concept of new rare species that nobody has seen before” in order to “bring color, joy, and readiness to discover”. Each mask conveys a unique persona: a four-eyed character’s mouth is open in awe, while drops of blue water-like shapes convey a fluid suit of armor. More

Although I didn't get to go anywhere or do anything too exciting over summer break, I did spend my stay-cation making as much art as possible. Isn't that what summer for art teachers should be about? Posted here are just a few of my fabulously artful summer projects! White on white canvas designed and inspired by my friend Elaine. "Nautilus" book designed and taught by Joni Russell from Mrs. O'leary's art store in Wichita, KS. The cover is made of copper with a leather binding. Pages are stamped with the new mermaid stamps from the Artful Illusions stamp line. This bottle, the copper book and the white canvas were all part of the Art Unplugged weekend at Mrs. O'Leary's in June. It was a weekend full of activities and classes with attendees not only from Wichita, but from all over the country! It was lots of fun to meet new artist friends and hang with art people who "get it!" A canvas inspired by Dawn Edmonson at http://the-feathered-nest.blogspot.com/ This is a mask made for a challenge with my Altered Artists group. It is made using a plastic mask form from JoAnne's. I decoupaged torn pieces of Tim Holtz idea-ology kraft resist paper stash. I then cut out a double thickness of paper for the butterflies so they could "pop" from the mask. I love how this turned out, thanks for the challenge idea, Nancy! A shadow box fairy/pixie class taught by my friend Jo McQueen as inspired from a class she took at Art & Soul with artist Stephanie Rubiano. So, overall, I had a very artful summer. Hopefully I can keep up the mojo during the school year... I miss summer already!
