( site in norwegianBruk ) (The use og grotesque masks and faces on buildings has a long and interesting history. In Pre - Christianity a scary mask were meant to keep evil spirits away from the house.This detail has survived all over Europe, and is still this day in use. Here is a place to purchase such decorative details for your building ) Bruken av groteske masker og ansikter p? bygninger har en lang og interessant historie. I f?r-kristen tid skulle et skremmende og frast?tende utseende p? masken holde onde makter borte fra huset. Denne detaljen overlevde og ble videreutviklet gjennom middelalderens kirkebygg (vannspyere). Frem til det siste ?rhundreskiftet kan vi se eksempler p? denne tradisjonen over hele Europa, ogs? i Norge. Maskene er sv?rt dekorative. Leter du etter det lille ekstra til en innredningside, kan du kanskje finne noe spennende her!

A degree in Textiles and Design in Rhode Island has taken many turns and paths -- fashion writing for a national magazine in NYC, clothing designing in San Francisco Bay Area, furniture design and interiors in Western Canada, house murals in Nova Scotia and Toronto, and theatre work on both sides of the border. Now a resident of The Beaches, mask-making is my focus. The masks are plaster gauze base, built with clay, painted and urethaned. They are meant for wall display and interior art as well as to be worn in play. One needs not to go to Carnival or Mardi Gras, to Venezia, Rio, or New Orleans to don a mask and frolic and provoke!

Hanging from a wall in my grade seven art teacher's classroom, was a mask woven with Jute. As soon I saw it, I had to learn how to make it. After a little coaxing, Mr. Stumm agreed to show me how to weave my first mask. And so began my love affair with masks. For the past 10 years, I have been experimenting with and producing both woven and papier mach? masks. What started out as a hobby, has now become the focus of my life. However, like many crafters, I need a day job to sustain my existence. This means I can't spend as much time as I'd like experimenting and perfecting my craft. However, if I am able to share what I have accomplished with people who love masks, I will be a satisfied artist.

The imagination holds millions of wonderfully complex and simple spirits who are always ready and willing to help us learn more about who we really are. I honor these spirits by giving them clothes, faces, and bodies to move around in. The gifts they have given me in return are priceless. I invite you to honor your imaginary selves and open to the inner wisdom your creativity will reveal to you. My inner spirits invite your inner spirits to come out and play. The answers to the universe lie within your own heart. -- Lucretia

My interest in masks began when I was quite young and just becoming interested in cultures other than my own. As an adult, international studies and travels to Africa and the South Pacific connected me to the mask as a unique tribal totem and cemented my fascination with their often primitive nature. With my own masks, I try to replicate that tone, through the use of organic materials, recycled and found objects, plant fibers and horse hair.

" "Swaps" are a wonderful way to build a collection. Artists create a number of pieces which are mailed to the organizer--known as the "Swapmeister". Each artist's pieces are distributed among the participants, so that while you send in the required number of items of your own making, you get back one from each participant--and they in turn get one of yours. So, with a group of ten artists, each will end up with one of their own items, and nine other pieces........."

The artwork I make is about history, myth, storytelling, religion, relationships, ceremony, civilization and humor. I am interested in the language of gesture, expression, texture, form and color. Through my work I am able to contribute to the long tradition of the artist as teacher, recorder and seer. The life of an artist is as important and meaningful as any in society.............
