"My gourd masks are created from a whole Canteen Gourd. I clean the outside of the gourd and draw the face on. After it has been pyroengraved, I proceed to clean and paint the inside & outside. The color of the masks are sometimes determined by the gemstones that are inlayed into the gourd and the exotic feathers."
