This piece was done for Laurie's, a dress shop in Stanwood, Washington. It has collage elements that would be found in such a shop, a zipper, button, three mirrors, cloth, yarn, and an earring part. I finished the back with one of Laurie's bags that I ironed flat..it still has it's sticker. This could really be fun..making paintings with "stuff" that people would want to look at....a part of their lives turned into art.
