@aecollins10 Cut them larger with a blade. I paint mine realistically, and I add hair - you can also attach a scarf or veil around the edges of the mask (stitch or glue). If it is a tragic mask, use acrylic paint to create tragic brows above the eyes, and further emphasise the mouth by outlining it. I find that tinting the hands with red paint makes for great drama, and draws attention to gestures I try to make my chorus "sing" in unison, varying the pitch for dramatic effect:
where did you get your neutral masks? I am a theatre teacher and I'm having a hard time finding affordable masks with mouths large enough for students to speak through.
you should have used half masks. it would have looked so much better and been easier to talk out of.
