Best Answer

Greek masks are made out of wood, cork, mud and linen.

They can look like anything. The Greeks made them very over the top so the audience could see clearly how they were meant to be feeling. They used very big lumps as eyebrows and noses. We are making Greek masks in history and it is really fun.

Usually the masks were made of linen, wood, or leather. A marble or stone face was used as a mould for the mask. Human or animal hair was also used. The eyes were fully drawn but in the place of the pupil of the eye was a small hole so that the actor could see.

records indicate that the masks were made from organic materials like stiffened linen, bark, wood or leaves. The masks that exist today are made of terracotta and were not worn by actors.
