Overview
Sculptural female bust encrusted in art glass, copper springs and paint on a wood and copper fittings pedestal.
Goals
This piece was commissioned for a contemporary home in Chicago. One look at the home gave me inspiration as to color and need for a powerful, detailed expression.
Process
The homeowner and I kept in contact verbally and through photographs during the process of making the piece.
