A Hand-painted, Homemade Mask for a Sock Doll

I made a variety of hand painted, homemade 
masks for baby dolls back in the late 90s using 
very old techniques.

This baby doll was a favorite of my younger daughter.
She “loved” it out of shape.

The mask was made with a very old technique. 
Someday I will add a tutorial about this method to my blog if 
my students show some interest in it. Most masks are 
pressed into a mold in order to form them. With this
technique, the exact opposite method is used. Consequently,
molds are not needed, only old doll heads.
