This head looks out across the Wey Navigation where it joins the Basingstoke canal. Not sure what its trying to say if anything at all. It's been there a long time  FXE16871-01-02 by Stephen Hayto, on Flickr |

I suppose this is technically a bust rather than a head but amazing what a clever bloke like Rodin could do with a bit of clay. I'd guess it was orginally on a wax support that melted when it was fired because it is hollow. Absolutely haunting to look at, even though it was in a glass case. I posted another shot of this on APforum way back.  IMG_0275-Enhanced-NR.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

Another kind of head and head wear. For some reason, getting the branch to balance on top of the head was very, very important. It took a while, and didn't stay there long, but it was done.  BV9R0343-Enhanced-NR.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

More Rita Tushingham, hairstyle wise. I've no idea who that is. Well I didn't know who Fabricant was. Rita is an English actress, born 1942. Last week she was on TV in one of the repeats of "Vera" with her characteristic hairstyle which is shoulder length straight hair cut square with a level fringe so that it frames the face and encloses the head. |

Aha. I don't do tv, but I do do politics. |

The only tomb photo I knowingly have is not a very good one of the tomb of Christopher Columbus in Seville Cathedral. I have lots of graveyard pictures but I'm a little hazy on the difference between a place of burial and a tomb. Must look up the formal definition.  IMG_0022.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |
