Learn how to make paper mache masks easily and quickly with these new techniques and over 300 step-by-step photos.
Make one of the 12 popular mask styles in the book. Once you learn these methods, you can use them to create your own unique designs for a play, Halloween, Mardi Gras - or just for fun.
Start out with a simple mask form and oil-based clay, and sculpt the features of your masks. The author shows you how. Then cover your sculpture with just two layers of super-strong, fast-setting paper mache, using the recipes included in the book. The clay can be used over and over again, and each mask you make will be a one-of-a-kind original.
When the paper mache is dry, use an easy painting method to make your sculpted mask look like it's made out of fur or feathers, antique gold, ancient bone, rusted iron, glazed porcelain, or carved and highly polished wood.
The innovative methods in this book are easy, the materials cost just pennies per mask, and your new creations will be even more fun to make than they are to wear. This book takes the art of paper mache masks to a whole new level.
Middle school students can make a mask using the ideas in the book. The book has also been used as a starting point for many amateur theater groups, by high school drama classes, and by adults of all ages looking for a new craft or hobby.

Jonni Good is obsessed with both animals and art – she is constantly surrounded by her growing menagerie of masks, paper mache animal sculptures, and plenty of real critters, too – her pets sometimes “help” her in her studio. Jonni started drawing animals back in grade school, which was a very, very long time ago. Doing the research required for her artwork is almost as fun for her as doing the artwork itself, because it allows her to learn so much about history and the natural world. This was particularly true with her latest book, How to Make Masks! because the history of this art form spans at least 35,000 years. In her “spare” time, she answer questions from fellow paper mache sculptors from all over the world – you’ll find many lively conversations in the comments section on her blog at UltimatePaperMache.com. She is also the author of the book Make Animal Sculptures with Paper Mache Clay.
