Description

This piece was first created by the artist, Bob Bischoff, as a stained glass diptych in the late 1970s, and is the third edition of 2,500. The artist credits the inspiration for this image to a placemat at a restaurant near Lake Okeechobee, Florida. The mold was created from glass, and the image was blind embossed with 100% cotton liner paper. Embossing is a process by which an image is created by pressing paper onto a mold (either with a press or by hand) into an enamel tray.
