I have been waiting to post about a finished artwork or two. But it seems with all the seasonal craziness I cannot finish any artwork of a decent size even though I have a couple close to being done... So I figured I'll post about this little artwork (only 5"x5") which has a destination.

This piece came about from my
experiments earlier this year and further experiments preparing for this little
video. The image that I worked with in it, is from my photograph of
Choir Singers bridge and it's shadow in St. Petersburg, Russia. You might recognize the motif as I have used it in many earlier pieces. Oh and Spb stands for St. Petersburg.
I mentioned earlier in the post that this piece has a destination. Yes it does! And if you're a subscriber to my
newsletter, you'll find out about that destination when you receive the newsletter later this week! I love a good tease.....
