Hey mom & dad - look what I made!

I had the privilege of volunteering yesterday at the Art Museum's Circle of Masks event. I ended up in the maskmaking workshop. I got to help little kids with their masks and make one of my own. I am proud to say that I have the artistic ability of a very talented 10-year old with a knowledge of African art.

Hmmm.....I may also have been influenced by seeing The Lion King on stage now that I'm looking at this picture.

I made sure to stop at my parents' on the way home to show off my work.

And yes, mine may be the only African mask in history that is wearing pink lipstick!
