This one was sent to me by Ajack60 Ajack60 with no real plan in mind, always fun when someone gives me room to play. After pondering it for a bit I came up with a Mondrian inspired design that would incorporate a few different textures with some anodizing and negative space to break up the big plain panel. B=blasted, H=hammered, S=satin...yellow highlighter will be gold anodized.

Horrible lighting today with the cloud cover🤬 But, the new blasting cabinet rocks...just need to re-touch the enamel in a few spots that got blasted where mask lifted a bit at the edges.
