This is the first time I am listing something as art. This piece is the most ambitious of my new wearable art/displayable jewelry line. The background photo started with a portion of a picture of a WPA mural entitled "Strikers" that is in Coit Tower in San Francisco. I altered the appearance ad added the background words and a lyric from the song, "Brother Can You Spare a Dime". The pendant portion is on a large, about 4 inch tall bakelite background with vintage carved wooden laced shoes. The other elements are a pocket watch face and parts, vintage game pieces, vintage overall buttons, a wooden nickel and a real nickel. The piece is held to the frame with magnets and can be worn with a chain stored on the back of the frame.
I am quite interested to hear what people think.
