Gilded Pleasure.by ~xothique

Artisan Crafts / Miscellaneous

I'm not sure what it says about my maskwork, but whenever I try to create something pretty, it usually ends up looking sinister.
Not always, but more often than not.

Papier-mache and Venetian-style gilding.

thank you!

I love this - the gilded filigree would also look amazing covering a black eye mask, shaped to accommodate the design. You've mastered this really quickly - I'm impressed

I never boil. I just simmer quietly.

~xothique Sep 23, 2009 Artisan Crafter

I wonder. Black filigree on black. With black highlights.

That could work too.

Hee! So goth it punches a hole through reality...

The line between insanity and Genius is only defined by success and failure.
