Okay, so the Fifth Dimension may not have been the coolest band ever, but if you are a person of a certain age I totally know what you are humming right now ...
Anyway, this is the story of Don's latest assemblage and how it came to be ...
 |
| Dimensions: 42" x 11" |
It actually started with this board from Junkology ...
which I photographed and printed in monochrome so we could play with some ideas ...
Chief among them was a sunburst, patterned after the daily specials board Don spotted at the Red Sky Cafe last summer (and yes, the tuna was to die for) ...
The problem was, the Junkology board seemed like it was a little too long and a little too narrow for a sunburst ...
So we started brainstorming ways to take advantage of the four "frames" on the board.
"What about phases of the moon?" I suggested ...
Which sent Don out the door to play with metal and milk paint, creating everything from a crescent ...
to a full moon ...

| Note: there are two layers of metal for dimensionality |
Except ... the moons totally didn't work on the yellow board, ending up on another board instead (yep, from that same trip to Junkology).
So the yellow board awaits and the sunburst idea is back on the table. To be continued ...
