Hello Golden One, The answer to your (not) dumb question of the day is both... All of my mask paintings are of actual masks. I just imagine them in different color schemes and environments and then get busy. Often I play with photos I've taken of my masks in Photoshop to get down the color scheme and composition. I usually have the mask that I'm doing a portrait of hanging on or beside my easel while I paint - keeping an eye on me to make sure I'm on the right track.  -Don

Sis- Stopping by just to say Hi!  We are up to our ears in water but not as bad as Iowa.  Spent the day in Stillwater today- a fun town that is by the river.  Laughing and goofing off with another girlfriend.  How are you?

I'm glad you liked my blaze pendant.  I cut glass is shapes I think will be interesting and then mix up different colors.  The center of the Blaze piece has dichoric frit to add 'pop'.   I fire the glass pieces in  my kiln to fuse them.  It can be a real surprise sometimes...most of the time a very pleasant surprise.  Thanks!

I enjoy your work too!
