I experimented with my final design, I printed a template in reverse, so I could paint backwards. Using an acrylic sheet I painted backwards with a few layers of acrylic paint. Once dry, I used rhinestones to create the 'Fuck's'. I loved the outcome, but felt the FOR and SAKE needed more colour and flair.
I photographed the finished piece, in front of my next door neighbour's blown over fence panel that has been on the floor for months. A very fitting FFS moment!
I was enamoured the way the diamantes catch the light outside. I used a scrap piece of acrylic that had 2 holes in the left hand side, which ruined the piece slightly. However, I wasn't worried as this was just a test piece, to see how the diamantes would work.
This just further reinforced that I wanted to use the crystals on the Fuck's - reinforcing the irony and duality of my theme.
