Masks

When deciding what to create for the Journal 52 prompt of Masks I had plenty of ideas. I went with the idea of masks we wear everyday - do we hide behind a mask to hide who we really are, or hide our true feelings; or do we wear masks to bring out our alter ego, putting on a brave face, or finding that thick skin to get through the work day. I created a colour wash background, pasted on some photos of me and hid the eyes with Washi tapes. It is surprising how much of a mask just that creates.
