For a long time, I have been lamenting the fact that my hair embroideries take 3 solid months of work to create a 2 x 3" work. The finished piece is easily passed by or dismissed as a drawing, but when people see a detail of the work blown up, they are often blown away. Today, I picked up my first archival large scale photo of a hair embroidery, face-mounted to plexiglass, and I am VERY happy with the results. It is clean and sexy, I have kept the victorian oval reference, and you can finally see all of the work that has gone into it. (the hammer is for scale)

is it on white plexiglas? Interesting idea -- quite a different kind of impact, I would think!
