Traditional and Mardi Gras Masks

Beginners and advanced learners, members of traditional groups and carnival enthusiasts

We will not be carving fantasy masks or Krampus masks, but working exclusively from classic models. After carving, the masks are given their unmistakable appearance by painting them with acrylic or oil paints.
