"Given that we can live only a small part of what there is in us - what happens with the rest?"

Quote by Pascal Mercier

My mask making began with a visit to the Alice Atelier, Florence Italy, where I met Professor Agostino Dessi and daughter Alice and learned how to make a mask the traditional Italian way. “These are story containers” Agostino explains, “Stories are delicate, it’s best to store them in places that suit them. The stories a person can give to the world are precious”. Visit the Alice Atelier at http://www.alicemasks.com/

“Masks are made to liberate people’s hearts and minds” Agostino Dessi.

Webbed Vision


This mask composition was inspired by a strong dream in which a spider appeared, weaver of fate and destiny. The mask is constructed from spider-eye beads, 3x on-the-round jigsaw pieces, and antique French silk. Charlyne says: "Love your latest work, delicate and ethereal. I admire how your work is always evolving, and thought provoking." Thanks darling Char...
