PAPER MACHE MASKS 2

After our study of Ghana my Art One students created paper mache masks and used the actual masks that I brought back from Accra as well as research.  After completing the masks they wrote about the symbolism they used and about the meaning of the colors they used.  These had to have been some of the best student made masks that I've ever had created by beginning art students.  Below are just a sample of some of their work.
