     Masks are a good way of hiding or concealing ones true identity. They are used in multiple different ways, for celebrations, mascots or to rob something so that the cameras won't pick up who it is. There are tribal masks used for celebrations or memoirs

     Our new project for masks is to create a mask that resembles you. We are each to use the seven stages of the creative process

• challenging and inspiring-getting inspiration from other pieces of work
• imaging and generating-developing on each idea to expand them and think of more 
• planning and focusing-making a plan for what you might want 
• exploring and experimenting-testing/drawing out how your plan would work
• producing, revising and refining-making your plan 
• presenting and performing-showing off your project and plan to people
• reflecting and evaluating-thinking back at what you can or want to do better next time

    So far we have looked at the the first three, we looked at different masks and their meanings, thinking about what we like and what represents us and are working toward sketching out two ideas that we feel represents ourselves.
