Ok. I lied. I had planned on showing you the back but I got more interested in the front first. This is where I left the piece today. I have cut apart the silk with the copper leaf, applied black misty fuse and attached. Then I stamped phrases that are timely with current events.
Here you can see the individual "islands" of copper leaf before I printed the phrases.
This is a detail shot showing a few of the phrases. Included in this shot are: corporate responsibility, home gardens, eco-friendly, stimulus, consensus building. There are about 15 in all. The paint used is a copper metallic acrylic. The copper leaf is real.

absolutely beautiful, Susan. I love the direction your art is taking you! Best of luck with the show entries!
What on earth do you mean, "not marketable?" It's gorgeous! Never, ever sell your artistic ability short! Never! Okay, stepping of my soap box now. lol
