Students research mask maker Jeff Semmerling and look at a variety of his masks. Students are given a styrofoam heads (used for wigs) and supplies such as cardboard, styrofoam pieces, and masking tape to create a mask of their choice to be attached to the head. Students then use plaster gauze to cover the mask and head to blend them together. Acrylic paint and embellishments are used to complete the final piece.
