Learn How to make a paper Face Mask of a Human

As I teach kids paper modelling and making simple masks,we begin with the themehow to make a paper mask of a human face. Well if you know how to adjust the human mask to the face of a man, then learn to make convenient masks of animals is already much easier.

And the kids like thatthey make mini masquerade running around in their masks and try to guess who is who. But let’s get down to making a human mask. Take the album sheet(20×30 cm) and bend it along -it will be the symmetry axis of the mask and the nose line.

Mask making

Make a perpendicular fold approximately one-third(10 cm from edge of sheet) – this is the line of the eyes. Now we have to be very careful.

On the bend at the eye line, draw half of the eye about 2 cm from the fold line of the nose.

It is very important to understand and remember that all facial features we draw relative to the midline ( from bend), and not from the edge of the sheet. Without straightening the crease line of the eyes cut out drawn half. And then unfold.
