Today's Feature: Watt & Shand #6

Today's feature is Watt & Shand #6, the companion piece to #5. I worked on them simultaneously, and enjoyed exploring two variations on the same format.
I made two screens from my image, and used the one that showed more details of the building and the scaffold to good effect against the black background. I kept the color scheme mostly neutral with just some shimmer from the metallics and the pop from the turquoise. I'd had the black and white silk hounds tooth fabric in my stash for many years and always felt it was too assertive, but here it fit in perfectly.
I've got the postcards for my upcoming exhibit, and I'm pleased with the look. Here's the front:

And the back with all the info. Hope to see you there!
