Tre - The process was lengthy. I life-casted my head (with the aid of 2 others) with silicone and alginate. Then made a plaster mold and built the mask onto the mold of my head. The mask is perfectly contoured to fit my whole head. It is made out of latex, cotton, and styrofoam for the nose.
Tre-the finished piece - Tre is painted with latex-impregnated acrylic. Then plastic leaves are added to the branches.
