American Icon
2004
Silkscreen print on gold leaf linen canvas
38 x 62 inches
Edition is sold out

Having seen many Byzatine icon paintings, I thought it would be appropriate to create an American money flag using gold leaf as a background. The work would convey a fragility as well as the iconic nature of the image. From this project, I was most excited to see how these pieces would come out.
