Sunrise Fabric Mixed Media Mask

Hello Everyone!

My local art museum has an annual charity auction and this year I got to participate! The auction is actually in April, but I had to turn my mask in earlier than that, lol.

I really love the challenge of working on a mask, rather than a flat canvas. It was fun to see if my technique for creating landscapes could be translated to a mask, and I think it was a success!

I used a photo that I took of a sunrise over my local city as a reference photo. Here the photo I took, it is a few years old but I really love it and I thought it would be perfect for this project

The colors really spoke to me and I want to recreate it.

I found that the biggest challenge was to make sure everything stayed adhered to the mask while it dried. Since it is not a flat surface things had a tendency to slide, lol. But I was patient and everything worked out in the end.

This project has encouraged me to look at other object to apply fabric to. Nothing is safe from my fabric, lol

  1. Love this! I know it is a bit tricky to work with heavier embellishments on top of uneven surface 😅. Sometimes I end up getting the adhesive medium all over my fingers #thestruggleisreal lol

      Lol the struggle is definitively real! I am always covered in paint and various adhesives. But it is worth it!

  2. Love it. So beautiful and so detailed 🙂 Lovely.
