The Collector of Things...2009

Was looking at some beautiful Mexican punched tin niches and wanted to do something like it too. Sooooo, I altered an Altoid chewing gum tin and created my vision of a niche.

OUTSIDE: Alcohol inks, punched design. That was fun.

INSIDE: bits-n-bobs of transistors, computer and watch pieces. Chips of jade, glass button, mini strainers, old necklace chains, and other jewelry pieces.
I so wish that my picture taking skills were better.

I think this piece is very mysterious and very fabulous. You've created an archaic quality in the coloring. I continue to gain inspiration from your work. -Spinning Jannie
