I spent Friday night and Saturday all day working on a school project with my niece Marlesia.

The mask is 100% polymer clay, the eye brows, hair, and lips are painted with acrylics and the rest is jusyt custom mixed clay.

Japanese Noh Mask- Face of a jealous woman. The mask is based on the legendary woman in a Noh play called, Hashi-hime, who was driven by jealousy to drown herself. It features thicker eyebrows and reddish face.

I just made a fresh batch of soap. Soap made with water collected from the wild storms we had last week. Almond, Olive, coconut, castor, and whatever essential oils I had on hand. Mini batch of cinnamon and small batch of rosemary with ground oatmeal and lavender buds.

Fresh soap curing in molds.
