At the end of the 1960s Childs tried new artistic methods. Plastic compositions of clotted transparent acrylic plates with engraved figurative signs, which were lightened by a masked light source. The occupation with light was continued in the images of sunsets after 1970. At the beginning of the 1980s Childs produced numerous sketches during the rehearsals for the annual Mozart festival and in 1982 his only self-portrait was executed.
