Today I will be working with cardboard to create a mask using flat surfaces to build a face. I covered an oval  balloon with plaster and paper mache to create a head shape and then I will cut the planes out of cardboard and fir them together like puzzle pieces.
I'll post the results in a day or two.

Here are a few more mask images from the internet.
