• As my mask didn't need a top I decided to use a brown paper bag to start constructing it and adjusting it to my head size. Once the bag was coated in white paint I considered how to replicate the red spots that often appear on the heads of mushrooms. I used the straightened out handles for the bag to create appendages similar to antennae designed to wrap around my hair and curl around to hold in place. I attached the red spots to these antennae and achieved the effect. Given more time I would have developed an easier way to get the mask on as I had to squeeze my entire head through it, and would have experimented with different colours and possibly spraying my hair a different colour to coincides it's the overall design and create a more refined effect for the final image outcome.
