Artist's Comments

Wind in my sail, A Viking ship with a vegvisir on the sail. This is hand tooled piece of thin Brass (Repousse) 9" X 6" I treated it with acid and then tarnished it to make it look old. It is derived from my tattoo (the viking ship) and Bjork's tattoo (the viking compass) It symbolizes Bjork's influence on me and the motivation and power she has given me to start doing artwork again after I had almost lost the willpower to do so!

I must so artwork to stay alive and to be who I am,
Music saves lives! Thanks Bjork!
