photohunt: painted

Painted masks, faces and bodies are basic elements of a Philippine fiesta. They inject energy and passion to the festivities, making all the merrymaking and praying and convergence more dynamic, electric and interesting.

This is the eye of a Moriones mask that was being sold in a flea market. I would have loved to have lashes and brows like those, hehe.
