A blue sash is draped diagonally across each of their chests, in opposite directions. The beings both have dark blue hair that curls upwards from their shoulders. Their earlobes are stretched, and extend almost to their chins. Two of the beings' arms are interlocked at the elbow. The other is raised up by their head. Two of the beings' legs are lifted up and forward so that only the toe touches the ground. Their knees cross in the middle of the page. The background of the painting is red, and a rectangular, dark blue border surrounds the image. There is a rounded, unpainted section behind each of the beings' head and shoulders.

A watercolour painting which depicts a spiritual being with an animal head seated on a horse-like animal. The being's head is black, and its body is blue. It is wearing a brown skirt that ends below the knee and curls outward at the hip. The bottom of the skirt has a border made up of brown, blue, white, and black horizontal stripes.

A rectangular sketchbook folder with most of its pages torn out--two pages remain inside. Sinhalese script has been written in blue pen in the top right corner of the cover. The folder is bound at the spine with thin, cotton thread, which is woven through the cover and inner pages to hold them together. The first page is a sample sheet with information about the sketchbook and manufacturer. The second page is also a sample sheet, with text on the back side. The cover is blue, and reads 'The Waverly Artistic School Drawing Book' in the bottom centre of the page. Above this, inside of a solid black oval, is a left-facing portrait style bust of Mars wearing a toga and a Roman helmet. Sitting on top of his helmet is a small, winged dragon with its mouth open and tongue out. Extending from the bust is a broad, floral border which continues along the top and sides of the cover in a rectangular arch. Thin, horizontal stripes fill in the space between the flowers and leaves. Surrounding the floral pattern, bust, and title is a second border, consisting of three thin, parallel lines.

A Gara Raksha (demon) mask. The mask is comprised of a face (part a) and two detached ears (parts b-c). All three parts are painted green, red, and white. The mask's eyes are cone-shaped, and protrude dramatically away from the face. Underneath each eye is a crescent shaped hole which allows the wearer to see. The mask's nose is pointed, with a bump on the bridge and two large nostrils. Its large, red mouth is filled with teeth, and two curved tusks that extend outwards from either corner. The mask's bottom jaw is secured via string, allowing the mouth to open and close. Three cobras with flared hoods extend upwards from the top of the mask. The one in the centre is the largest, and extends from the mask's forehead. The two smaller cobras extend from each of its temples. Around both of the mask's eyes and across the bridge of the nose is a decorative pattern comprised of round, elongated shapes. The mask's ears (parts b-c) are round, concave discs with lotus flower motifs painted on. There is a small hole in the centre of each disc, and a wooden peg extends from a point on the outer rim. When attached, the ears flare outwards from the sides of the mask's face. The back of the mask is unpainted. A braided rope and piece of thin cloth are tied through small holes in the mask, in order secure it to the wearer's face.

A mask depicting the anabera kolama (drum messenger), a figure in kolam popular drama. The mask is painted yellow, with red, black, and white details. Its hairline is outlined in red, and the wood above the hairline is unpainted. The mask's red-rimmed eyes protrude slightly from its face, and are shaped like half-moons. Underneath each eye is a crescent-shaped hole which allows the wearer to see. The mask's nose is prominent, with a downward curve and large, hollow nostrils. Its red mouth is open in a large, toothy smile. Forehead creases are carved into the mask, and outlined in red. Its eyebrows are painted in black. The mask has a full moustache and long beard, which are fashioned from strands of jute. The jute is knotted to a piece of string, from which it hangs. The string is tied through small holes in each of the mask's ears in order to affix the beard and moustache to the face. Some of the jute in the beard has been twisted together in order to create thicker strands. There are two small holes above the mask's ears, and one at the top of its head, but the material used to secure the mask to the wearer's face is missing.

Maha Kola Sanni Yakka healing mask (part a) with removable side panels (parts b-c), figure (part d), earpieces (parts e-f), and fangs (parts g-h). Mask depicts a large figure wearing a headdress made of snakes, a silver-coloured shirt, and knee-length skirt with curvilinear and geometric motifs across it. The earpieces (parts e-f) protrude from either side of the head, below the headdress. They have a central flower design, with two snakes wrapped around the outer edge. The figure has a human in between its fang-like teeth, and a human tucked under each arm. Its hands are bent in front of its body, and the female figure (part d) lies across them. Blood is dripping from its teeth, down its chest, and onto its protruding belly. The figure is standing on top of a large smiling head, painted black. The face has bulging eyes, a large nose with prominent nostrils, and two fangs (parts g and h). It is wearing a headdress composed of human figures. Extending up from the face, and surrounding the large figure, is a blue wooden frame. Attached to either side of the frame are the panels (parts b and c). Painted blue, they are each composed of two columns of four multi-coloured heads, with barred teeth. At the top of each set of columns is a pink head, with large ears, wearing a triangular headdress. At the bottom of each set of columns is a large yellow flower. The panels have snakes along the outer edges. The heads rest at the top, and the tails curves around the bottom.
