I really love masks and all the ones in here are fabulous.
And I had never seen or heard of a Buffalo Kachina doll before and now I want to learn everything because they're so cool looking. May have to do a master study of this sculpture.
The dagger on page 83. Intelectually I know I can't have it nor should I have it. But fuck me I want it. Sharp objects. They sing a siren song.
