I added a page, Album as it is called in my site
About: Mask Making+ my simple slabroller
I coppy here what I have written there:

This technique I had learned from my ceramic teacher Sarka Prakhia.
It was a good connection between the portraits painter and the ceramic
doing. I demonstrate here the way of creation. The mask I maden -
because it was not covered with plastic bag, cracked and was recycled.

My slabroller was built to my request by my good friend Shimon (In
Hebrew Shim-on) Based on a linoleum a printer I had. Was built acording
to the size of my old kiln's shelves(40X40C'm)
In the first time I must help with my 'tiny' belly. The scond time when
I use my 'Canyon Red' Rug, it works fine. I use washing rag as cloth
which gives me a nice texture too. Usualy I have to go once more with a
rolling pin.
