6th Grade Repoussé Masks

6th grade artists have created some excellent metal repoussé masks. 





They began by drawing a design for their mask on paper and then tranferred the design to the metal.

Next they tooled the metal on both sides to create texture and a 3D effect.








When they finished tooling, they cut out their mask with scissors.

The following step was to add color with sharpies or to add a patina with india ink. Some of our artists did both
