To make a mask is an arduous task. It involves choosing an impressive subject, visualising it clearly, planning the manner or its execution, and then plunging into laborious and complicated work, bristling always with new problems. Mask-making is a peculiar kind of sculpture where one must at the same time consider the aesthetic and the practical side of it, the exterior and the interior of the mask, the character it is intended to represent, and the fitting to the head of the wearer. One must also remember to make the mask as thin as possible, and yet strong and durable.
-- W.T. Benda, Masks, Watson-Guptill Publications, 1944. P.21

Mask Makers web into meditation
Hello dear visitors - we are sorry that we haven't had the time to maintain this wonderful site as much as we wanted for a long time.
We have been very busy and will be for yet another long time - so the site will enter into a meditation until further notice.
We will only deal with issues when we have the time.
But don't worry - the site will stay online.
