STARFISH + KELP 12" x 6" glass with a brushed silver frame etched, blasted, gold leaf + paint $475 ©Susan E. Roden + Nancy Arthur-McGehee So I'm still playing here with my buddy Nancy. We created Starfish + Kelp which is one of the few remaining pieces from our former exhibit. She etched and blasted the glass, whereas I painted the reverse of the pane with acrylics and then applied gold leaf. The piece has incredible depth from an added bottom layer of a mirror. What truly made the project fun, was the unknown factor. After a discussion of subject matter, one would take the piece to start off and create an image. Then in turn, hand it over to the other to finish off.
