Harmon’s work, Money Piece, is a three-piece mixed media artwork. Harmon created a cylindrical glass piece with a textured surface of 3D squares. Accompanying two prints were created by rolling the still hot blown glass cylinder piece onto a damp piece of watercolor paper, burning in the square texture into the surface.
