Sense of PlaceWe wander. We pause. We settle. The place we call our own calls to us and draws us in.
Ink-embellished Eucalyptus eco-print on watercolor paper over rust-dyed muslin. Wound acoustic guitar string and guitar and bass guitar string 'end beads' finish and anchor the piece. As with all art works, keep away from direct sunlight. |

This botanical mixed media collage is mounted on lightweight birchboard. Upcycling and re-use is always an element in my work, so I've incorporated a steel guitar string into the back of each piece as the hanger, along with a foam strip to support the light-weight birch board against the wall.
If you prefer, you could also mount the piece on matt or foam board and frame the piece. The guitar string hanger can be easily clipped off, and the foam buffer strip can be removed as well. I suggest an inside frame size of 12 X 12.
