This piece is entitled "Wow, Man!" and utilizes both the jewel-like CD/DVD material and some new recycled material I haven't used before. The red and orange diffraction-type materials were cut from discarded

Christmas decorations that were hung in a Target store. While normally tossed in the dumpster when the holidays are over, I asked the lady in charge of decorations if she would save that portion for me. She did and I'm glad because I think this material has great color, is very eye-catching and great to work with. The orange is the result of lightly caressing the basic red material with a small torch flame.

I actually did this piece as a gift for her to thank her for going to the extra trouble of saving this great material for me.
