Adding Detail

Well I am now to the stage where I can really tell what they are going to be. I am going in and adding details with a Sharpie marker (OK so I am a total hack, but I can draw a cleaner line than I can paint). Next step is to fill in some contrasting colors and a few more highlights and shadows and then on to ornamenting with gems and sequins. The trick for me at this stage is I see all the asymmetry in the masks and it bothers me, and so I have to keep reminding myself that even God doesn't make faces symmetrical so it is a little presumptuous for me to think that I can.

Blah, sick. Going back to sleep now.
