Was to alter something and have the theme Dreams
I of course had to alter a fish can this was the larger size and I attached a tin lid and hanging hook. When painted  I filled it with fish cut from the lids of fish tins and created reeds from a aluminium food tray. The fish and reeds were coloured with  Ranger alcohol inks.Also from the aluminium I cut coloured and embossed a small label.

I used sharpies and OHP pens to colour and then removed the ink leaving the words highlighted.

The most difficult part was trying to get a good photo.
