One thought that came to mind early on was a diver's helmet

NOTES: 18 x 24 inches /// 4 screens (1 metallics) /// artist edition signed and numbered to 50 + 25 on mirrored gold /// Original show date was December 2

I pieced together this idea that the helmet itself was an isolation tank that once sat at the bottom of the ocean

Thrasher Wheat - pin numbered to 100 Stickers Earlier in 2016 Avett mgmtPlease note that this is larger than the usual one inch soft enamel pins I'm accustomed to seeing. Doing this helped retain all the details. This one is a little spicy. It's serial numbered to 100, its got custom blue clutches plus a gentle clear epoxy coating over the front of the image. It's beautiful in person. Definitely finding my sea legs on enamel pins. NOTES: 3 inches tall roughly copper metal backside features triple posts with custom blue
