News: Calacas Juried into Day of the Dead Show!










Four student sculptures like the ones on the far left made it into a show at the Winchester Cultural Center!



These masks were on display at the same show and have inspired me to get my Interemediate classes involved with the Day of the Dead festivities by having them create skull masks from rolled out sheets of Sculpey clay. I figure they can form them over the plastic face masks molds I have and work on face proportions. Then add as much gawdy decorations as possible. I love how these are antiqued. Shoe polish would probably do it.
