Artwork Description

Mosaic Tabletop

0.0 x 0.0

This is done in opalescent stained glass tesserae and found beach glass. It was commissioned by a lady from the Hamptons whose family owned a major farm implement company. When she lost $3 million dollars to Bernie Madoff, she was heard in my presence instructing her house manager to attempt to recoup a portion of her losses by 'squeezing' the illegal mexican cleaning lady's salary. She actually looked at me, as she was about to PAY me our pre-arranged fee for this piece, and seemed to be contemplating an attempt at 'squeezing' myself as well. By the simple expedient of staring at her with a look that indicated I might 'squeeze' her NECK, she thought better of it, and wrote out my check. She still sends me an xmas card each year with a picture of herself and her 3 dogs on it
