Meet The Artist Behind The Masterpiece Hand-Carved African Masks When I start carving an item I have to concentrate and as I do that, I forget about all my sorrows, and so for a moment, I was able to get over the sad incidence. The materials I use for my craft are sese wood, emulsion paint and aluminum and these materials can be purchased on the local market. The wood chippings are used as firewood for their domestic cooking by the people in the community who come over each day to collect them.
