Week 29

At the top of the faces of the Goddess is this horrible monster.  It is only very small in size and hidden behind the crowns on her heads I think it represents death, although I can't be sure.  But next to all the serenity of those faces it is rather disturbing.

I painted a side view of this devil and just one of the skulls onto some fabrics and then drew in the details with a pen.  I then put it onto some visofix and cut out the shape.  I ironed this onto a background that I quilted in pretty colours to contrast with the ugliness of the face.  I found doing this weeks piece distasteful but it is part of the statue.

The coils of the ear ring I think is supposed to be a snake.  There are lots of other details on this statue but I have limited the pieces to 5, the same as the other pieces.  Time to move on to some of the other details of the Pagoda
