Gorman's Rabbit II

A VERY experimental mixed media piece--those are ceramic bathroom tiles glued to the surface. Which took all manner of experimentation to figure out the best way to mark on the tiles and to seal the mark so it wouldn't come off if somebody breathed on it (fluid matte medium dabbed VERY carefully over acrylic PITT pen, then wiped down around the edges so it didn't smear. Much more fiddly than the description makes it sound.)

And then, after all that work, I realized I'd put it all on the panel upside down, so the nail hole in the back was on the bottom. *sigh* So this one would require actual framing, and since the tiles stick out so far, foiling conventional framing, it will probably specifically require one of those front-loaded illusion frames. The best laid plans...

Anyway. I dunno if it really works visually, but I really wanted to try the tile thing.
