Leema Sam is a small entrepreneur. She makes masks, Thanjavur dolls and dancing horses. Her creations have even reached the Galerie Lafayette in Paris and Harrods in U.K, where her masks are much sought after. But at one time, Leema?s story was that of a struggler, groping for a foothold in the small-scale handicraft industry.

Each Powermask is made from the wood of the Queen Palm that grows in South West Florida. As the artist feels each piece of palm wood she holds it until she senses the essence or the spirit of the wood. A story and/or lessons about life are taught through the use of etchings and multi colored paintings. Those who are engaged in their own desire for improvement and spiritual growth can use the Power Masks as an adjunct tool/technique for meditation and visualization. The artist feels the Masks can be helpful in trying to reduce the stress of daily life.

Hi, I live in the U.S., and I am an Aviculturist. I have been studying on my own how to make masks and I find it fascinating. So far have made about 20, and most of them have feathers from my peacocks, parrots, and other Avian friends, when they molt.

Beautiful Venetian masks. "As an Art Shaman, Farago conjures a world of drama, irony, and whimsy using archetypes such as the romantic, the fool and the hypocrite. She embraces art as a way to solve the innate dilemma of the human condition."

The first time I saw Michelangelo's David I was five years old. The second time I saw it I was thirteen and it shocked me because of how much it had shrunk. Michelangelo wrote - 'Whoever does not like the leaves ought not to come here in May.' The story is time, cronos, circular time. The size and shape of things change. Everything influences me even in its absence. Without the memories that I have developed through time I would be a child freshly born...no, I would be just-conceived. I am always building on this story and working toward the end of it, may it be death or forgetfulness. I end up spending a large portion of my time making things that seem to have little purpose like paintings, sculptures, masks, and music. I get absorbed in them and trough them. I sometimes brush up against that being before memory started...if memory started. It's like digging to find a hole.?

I have studied various art forms, from graphic design to fashion design, and dance, as well as self taught expressions such as jewelery design and poetry writing. Each of these mediums has influenced my mask designs. I became interested in mask design while studying Anthropology, as well as vast metaphysical literature. My methods are all self taught and I don't plan any of my pieces, I just go with the flow. Materials range from velvet and leather to crystals,chain, plaster and feathers. Each of these masks were titled after completion. They became themselves I guess. I started creating as a small child and have found the true path of my soul through creation. I welcome any inquiries for commissioned works or creative partnerships such as fashion shows or photo shoots. Please refer to the contact page on this site.

"Her soft, colorful masks are still decorated in the old style, using virtually anything at hand. But instead of the broken jewelry, bird feathers, and animal bones her ancestors might have gathered on their farms, Launey "scavenges? at the craft supply section of her local Wal-Mart. She might use a plastic snake for a tongue or shoulder pads for lips"
