Iceberg Series

While studying reactions between materials I stumbled into a series of ice bergs as a representation of myself. There's so much to who we are that the rest of the world doesn't see, hidden below the surface. I'm grateful to those who, like the viewer, see and appreciate all of me.

Plates

Plates are made according to your choice of colors and sizes. They can be ordered here:  www.etsy.com/shop/BlueArtHouse

Available sizes: 8in, 10in, 12in

Available colors: transparent grey, transparent aquamarine, or transparent sea blue. (Other colors are available by custom order)
