Mardi Gras


The overall dimensions of this piece are 7 ½” x 3 ½”.
My design process started with the mask at the top.  After assembling it using various metal bits and pieces, feathers and glitter I then moved on to deciding how to use it.  The mask has been sitting on my worktable for several months waiting to be used.  I’m happy to have finally done something with it.

    This is fabulous and I am so glad you gave the size as I would have thought it to be much larger with all the details you have incorporated. Love the colors too. Blissful creating...
