I knew I had to make my mask filled with different colors and textures. After slapping on a coat of paint I started with the beaded star eye. I had this idea which sort of pays homage to 70s rock like KISS or even David Bowie, the music I grew up on. It’s made of miscellaneous beads that have been with me since i was little. I’m really into jewelry making and bead work so that represents that aspect of me. I made a guitar over the other eye and a piano for the eyebrow to represent my love of music. Playing piano and guitar is big part of my identity so I knew I had to include it. I used yarn for the strings because I’m a big crocheter so that’s like a little easter egg.
