With the time I have had left this week when not busy with other things, I managed to do what I set out to do, I decided to use mod roc as the background for my body mould, I took on feedback from my last piece before the FMP and made it so there is no join and it looks complete, I have stood the piece up to check that the mod roc has stuck to the MDF 6ft by 2ft board as I hoped, It was a success. as for the face in the black box, although I used a sealer after the black paint because it was a cheep paint it continued to crack, I keep toping it up with more paint because I can't afford to buy a more expensive paint at the moment, as for the face in the white box, I ended up using mod roc to join the neck of the head to an upside down metal basket, everything else I tried as a stand just looked wrong, I either lost the neck in a tube or the shape of a stand didn't look right. after applying the mod roc, I used a plaster glue to disguise the mod roc.  I will add the low relief face I did on metal which is still in college, this will lean against the inside, back of the white box behind the head so the image is almost hidden.  I hope to receive yet another UV light for this box before the end of next week, this will light up the face behind the head. then I hope the three pieces will be finished. so that I can concentrate on getting my sketchbook up to date. Photos below.
this is the image I want to put behind the head in the white box.
I hope the UV lights come in time if not I may have to use the UV torch.


The face above this photograph will be going behind this head to finish this piece.

the first box represents the singer, song writer public life yet hidden, the second box is the private life hidden from view kept in a box, the two boxes are separate even though they represent the same person.



I have added a micro phone to represent a singer.

the beads are painted black to represent rosary beads with a cross.







This piece represents faith, religion, mother and child.  It will be displayed between the two boxes that I have done, without the child, the contents of the boxes wouldn't exist, to the mother her child or children are more important than anything else. although proud of her child or children's achievements in life the child will always be her baby that she loves, cherishes and protects. In my pieces I have tried to represent all of these things, the music
