Secrets Bust WIP

This is the project I am currently working on. The exposed white body will be covered in collage including the pulp netting she is currently draped in.

She is called a 'secrets bust' because the front panel of her body opens to reveal a place to hide things. The panel sticks out a bit awkwardly now, but I am hoping the surrounding college work will remedy that.

The 'secret panel' is made from an Altoids tin :]. I will collage the inside of it and hide some secrets in there.

I wanted her eyes to look like they would be hard to open. The lashes almost have an eerie 'sewn shut' appearance.
