Special Instructions
I used the mask as a blank oval canvas. I painted one of my favorite subject matters, the beautiful fall aspen trees of Colorado. I have always loved how the aspen trees appear to have eyes. I tried to subtly align the aspen tree eyes with the mask eyes. I hope that my mask captures the spirit of the subject in a piece of unique art.
